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 [...]

Elvis Presley’s Fried Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwich

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 [...]

Homemade Peanut Butter Cups

I’ve always wanted to make my own chocolate and peanut butter cups.  The recipes are so easy, I’m not sure why I’ve never gotten around to it until now. 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 [...]

Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies

This is a cookie for the peanut butter lover.  It was just a touch too much peanut butter in one bite for me, but I will admit that these cookies are very tasty.  And very full of peanut butter. I originally saw the recipe for peanut butter sandwich cookies in the new The Taste of [...]

No Bake Cookies

No Bake Cookies

Due to our recent oven failure, I cannot bake anything at all until the heating element is replaced. But I needed something sweet to eat, so I chose the chocolate peanut butter no-bake cookie. I hadn’t eaten one of these since I was in about third grade at my babysitter’s house, so I was thinking [...]

Chocolate & PB Cupcakes

Chocolate & PB

I will start this particular post by noting that I am not of those cakers who vehemently abhor box cake mixes. While it is true that I would much rather bake a cake from scratch, I have no problem with a box cake mix. And I did have a box cake mix sitting in the [...]

Chocolate Mayonnaise Cupcakes

Chocolate Mayonnaise Cupcakes

When I first heard of a chocolate cupcake made with mayonnaise, I was intrigued and had to try it out. Today was the perfect opportunity since I had no butter on hand, and there is no butter in these cupcakes. I got the recipe for the cupcakes from 52 Cupcakes. I’m only posting a cross [...]

Peanut Butter & Nutella Cookies, Continued

Nutella & Peanut Butter Cookies

We have yet another cookie for you this week. This must be cookie week at The Sweetest Kitchen! Don’t worry, I should have a cupcake for you next week. Now, I’ve already made a peanut butter and Nutella cookie, but I thought I’d try to make a cookie that is half peanut butter, half Nutella. [...]

Iron Cupcake Earth: Chili

Iron Cupcake Earth: Chili Pepper

I have finally completed my entry for Iron Cupcake Earth’s challenge of chili pepper. I made two variations of my entry and chose the one I liked best. My entry is a chocolate cupcake, filled with chili chocolate ganache, topped with a layer of chili chocolate ganache, frosted with peanut butter frosting and sprinkled with [...]

Peanut Butter & Nutella Cookies

Peanut Butter Cookies

This is obviously not a cupcake, but still sticking upon the topic of Nutella from the last post – peanut butter cookies swirled with Nutella. I created this today because I love peanut butter and Nutella together (although care should be taken when eating plain pb and Nutella at the same time so as not [...]
