I really wanted to give you the recipe for the delicious smoothie, but we had a vote and the blondies won!  I demanded a recount, but I would have had to make more trays of blondies for Josh to take to work (all his co-workers loved them)! My feet were sore and I had did enough baking for one day, so I decided to gracefully take my defeat! I guess blondies do have more fun :).

    Love the pretty dark chocolate peanut butter swirls in here 🙂 No wonder Josh’s co-workers loved these blondies – they look awesome Shundara!

    Is “right off the spoon” a recipe? I really like peanut butter in my oatmeal in the morning. It’s a good kick start! I also love flourless peanut butter cookies (:

    I love peanut butter. banana, and chocolate french toast sandwiches, but this recipe looks like a great new one to try!

    My favorite peanut butter recipe is monster cookies which is basically an oatmeal peanut butter cookie with a bunch or trial mix add ins.

  45. Liz Blunt says

    I make a triple peanut butter cookie that my nephew adores. It’s two peanut butter cookies with more peanut butter inside!

    This looks beyond delicious! I don’t really have a favorite peanut butter recipe, but I like to make peanut butter cookies- so simple, so yummy!

    I wish I could list some fancy peanut butter recipe, but my favorite is warm peanut butter cookies, and I love to top them with chocolate covered pretzels!
