Chocolate Peanut Butter Creme

Submitted by bunkie68

"This is a vegetarian recipe I found on a website I frequent (or at least it was billed as vegetarian - I'm not one myself, so please don't shoot the messenger if there's something in here that makes it not vegetarian!). I haven't tried it yet, but it sounds good, so I thought I'd write it down where I wouldn't lose it! And I'm not normally a big fan of tofu, but I've used it to make desserts before, and they've turned out really well, so I reckon this one is worth a try. Servings and prep time are estimates, and cooking time includes refrigeration time."

This couldn't be easier, or yummier! I put it in the freezer to speed up the chilling time. Thanks for posting!
