Wow, the title of this post is a mouthful!  If you can think of an easier name for these cupcakes, just let me know!  These cupcakes were created for November’s Cupcake Hero challenge ingredient, peanut butter.  I’ve already entered one cupcake into the competition this month, but I just love peanut butter so there was [...]

This month’s theme ingredient for Cupcake Hero is peanut butter.  Peanut butter is one of my favorite foods and a definite staple in our kitchen cabinets.  I had a couple of ideas for a peanut butter-themed cupcake and this post will show you my first one, the chocolate peanut butter cup cupcake.  I realize that [...]

If you’re a lover of chocolate chip cookies, like I am, then you probably have your favorite recipe and you may even remember when and where you tasted the perfect chocolate chip cookie.  For me, my favorite recipe is Cook’s Illustrated’s perfect chocolate chip cookies and I do indeed remember where I tasted my all-time [...]

This is just a very short post about combining two of my favorite spreads – peanut butter and Nutella.  If you’re a frequent visitor, or if you just have a look through the archives, you’ll see that I’ve tried to combine these two spreads a couple of times in cookies, my favorite one having been [...]

This is going to be a 2-in-1 cupcake post!  I was going to post a recipe for mixed berry tea, but quite a few people have expressed interest in both of these cupcakes, so I decided I’d go ahead and post the recipes for them instead.
The first cupcakes I’d like to absolutely rave about are [...]

This recipe for peanut butter toffee cookies was recently a Cookie of the Day at the Martha Stewart website.  I’ve been interested in toffee lately, so I thought that this recipe might be a good way to incorporate some toffee into my baking.

I used 2 Hershey’s brand Heath bars for this recipe, just the regular [...]

Flourless Peanut Butter Cookies

I was super excited when I saw Joy The Baker’s recent post on flourless peanut butter cookies because these cookies are made without flour (as the name would suggest!) and also without butter (in my previous post I noted that I’m out of butter!).  The cookies require only four ingredients, and they bake up soft [...]

I hadn’t planned on making this sandwich, but when I was browsing through Nigella Lawson’s newly designed website, I found the recipe for Elvis Presley’s fried peanut butter and banana sandwich.  It reminded me that it was always something I wanted to try but hadn’t gotten around to yet.

I’ve had peanut butter and banana together [...]

They really took no time at all, in nearly 30 minutes I was already sinking my teeth into these oh-so-rich peanut butter cups.
I looked at a few [...]
