I am indeed sold! Very much loving the combination of peanut butter at the moment.
Yum yum yum yum yum!!! Too bad peanut butter isn’t a big thing in the household, because these look and sound absolutely amazing!
As for procrastinating… I’m actually procrastinating right now by staying on the computer when I’m supposed to go to bed to sleep. UMM.
ha ha, me too! Doing the old Facebook -> Twitter -> Facebook -> YouTube -> Facebook etc So much for sleep o_0
When I was teaching and it was report writing time I would manage to clean my house top to bottom!!! There was vacuuming, dusting, polishing everything to be done except a whole class of grade 5/6 reports! This feeling never surfaced at any other time!!
Oh he’ll yes! How fantastically delicious do these look?!
That looks delish!
Where do I send money? These square have my name written all over them ;P
I cannot believe you cleaned the floor with a toothbrush. Um, I just stay up really late (like 3am late) reading (must finish book) when I know I should really go to sleep to face whatever task it is I have the next day.
Haha Larry is quite cute I have to say for a monster (and smiling too!). This looks scrumptious. And I had to laugh about cleaning the floor with a toothbrush-I’ve done it! :P
lol! Hi to Larry!
I love peanut butter and chocolate together!
I spent some of my undergrad years living in a house with two GIGANTIC lawns. I spent countless hours weeding them with a little weeder tool, by hand. They would of course grow back, so it was a neverending task. Perfect for the procrastinator.
Great simple treat!
oh yes, the cleaning monster emerges! Washing and ironing and dusting never looks so good :)
Shucks :)
I was 17 and home alone (supposed to be) studing for my Tertiary Entrance Exams. A good book is a much better idea!
bahaha larry always shows up late at night for me! ive cleaned the oven with a toothbrush but um not the floor lol im impressed! i love the sound of that peanut butter layer!
Thanks Lorraine. Glad to know i’m not alone in the toothbrush cleaning brigade :)
I imagine weeding those little suckers was therapeutic too! Hmmm… need a garden methinks ….
Yes! Another tootbrush warrior. Now that you mention it, my oven DOES need a clean …. Essay? What essay!
Mmmmm peanut butter slice is so devine, it never lasts long in our household. Yours looks totally delish, and I like how you have made the whole thing no bake.
yummmmm
Now that’s my idea of a treat! It just looks amazing. Almost too good to eat. Almost!
Hi, just a question…do you need to warm the peanut butter mixture so that it spreads easier? Am considering this recipe very seriously for a bake-off competition as I have tons of homemade peanut butter…
Im definitely making this I LOVE peanut butter and chocolate!
Can u use crunchy peanut butter?
Hello,
I’ve not tried crunchy peanut butter in these before, but I can’t see why it wouldn’t work. Might add a nice texture. If anything, you might have to increase the butter slightly so it’s not too thick.

Emma
