These <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/dessert\/cake\/chocolate-peanut-butter-pretzel-cupcakes.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chocolate Peanut Butter Pretzel Cupcakes<\/a> also add in peanut butter, which makes everything chocolate better.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>When you bite into the cupcake, you get a burst of flavor from a creamy peanut butter filling. Paired with the salty pretzel crust and a moist chocolate cupcake, I see these going fast wherever you bring them.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;When a friend was describing what the perfect cookie would be if it existed, I decided to create a recipe to give her as a Christmas present,&#8221; shares <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/Catmandu\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Cathi Mims<\/a> (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/members\/browse\/list?search=Lees+Summit%2C+MO\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lees Summit, MO<\/a>). &#8220;The following recipe is what I came up with and was a huge hit with her and her family.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Cathi came up with an amazing <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/dessert\/cookies\/chocolate-chip-peanut-butter-caramel-pecan-cookies.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Caramel Pecan Cookie<\/a> that needs to be saved to your recipe box. <\/p>\n<p>There&#8217;s quite the ingredient combination in this treat. The cookie itself is filled with chocolate and peanut butter. There&#8217;s a bit of crunch from chopped pecans. It&#8217;s a great surprise when you bite into the middle of the scrumptious cookie and find even more scrumptious caramel. So good!<\/p>\n<p>The Kitchen Crew is plain nutty for <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/Queenlalisa\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Lisa Allen&#8217;s<\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/dessert\/candy\/peanut-butter-balls-18.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peanut Butter Balls<\/a>. &#8220;We have made these yummy peanut butter balls every Christmas for 24 years,&#8221; says Lisa. &#8220;I always make them with my mother-in-law. Now my little girl loves making them with us.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>These balls are so good you&#8217;ll be finding excuses to make them. The filling is a mixture of peanut butter, butter, graham crackers, and powdered sugar. It&#8217;s sweet and nutty. Once formed into balls, those are dipped into chocolate. OMG, it&#8217;s the perfect pop of yumminess.<\/p>\n<p>If pie is more your thing, try <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/librarylady40\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Heather M.

Besides being seriously easy to make, it&#8217;s delicious.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I won my very first pie baking contest with this pie&#8230;1st place and best in show,&#8221; explains Heather. &#8220;I used Nutter Butter cookies for the crust because you can never have enough peanut butter as far as I&#8217;m concerned!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>This cool creamy peanut butter pie is to die for! The Nutter Butter crust is a nutty base for the cool and creamy peanut butter mousse-like filling. A layer of hot fudge over the crust prevents it from getting soggy but also adds another flavor element to this no-bake pie.<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/me\/pattio66\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Patti Smith&#8217;s<\/a> (<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/members\/browse\/list?search=Calhoun%2C+GA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Calhoun, GA<\/a>) <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.justapinch.com\/recipes\/dessert\/chocolate\/peanut-butter-fudgy-brownies.html\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Peanut Butter Fudgy Brownies<\/a> are easy to make and just melt in your mouth.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Don&#8217;t let all of the steps fool you, this is really easy to make,&#8221; thinks Patti. &#8220;It&#8217;s basically layer, layer, and layer! This is a favorite to put into lunchboxes and to serve as an afternoon snack.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Rich and chewy with layers of fudgy goodness, these aren&#8217;t your typical chocolate brownies. Patti starts with a boxed vanilla cake mix that gets mixed with peanut butter. This gets layered with a mixture of melted chocolate and condensed milk. Once baked, these are heavenly. Snack time never tasted so good.<\/p>\n<p>In my mind, peanut butter can&#8217;t be beat. If your peanut butter love goes deeply too, try one of these dessert recipes. Your family will go nuts for them. Happy Pinching!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Peanut butter is so much more than just an ingredient for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.
