I'm a chocolate & peanut butter fanatic! I have more recipes that call for these two ingredients than anything else. From cakes, to cookies, to ice cream, but this one is by far my favorite of them all! This is a very simple, but elegant looking dessert. With a little mixing & assembly, you'll create a beautiful dessert for any occassion with minimal effort, but it looks like a masterpiece.
