Chocolate-Peanut Butter Fudge Bars

"Peanut butter and chocolate, yum! I got this recipe from a 2005 isuue of Womans Day magazine and its presentation is nice enough for serving to guests or just treating yourself to a bit of indulgence. They're very rich, so don't let the small 9" pan size fool you ;)"

  1. How can you go wrong with peanut butter and chocolate?? These are delicious, though a little too thick for me. I made them in a 8" pan (I don't own a 9") and I can barely open my mouth wide enough bite them (and who wants to eat them in layers...?) So, next time, I will make them in a slightly larger pan so they're not quite so thick. That said, I will certainly make them again!
     
  2. Holy cow. I love the chocolate/peanut butter combo in anything , but these are over the top delicious. I am so glad I had the foresight to freeze half the batch. Great , easy to follow directions , with the times spot on for me. Thanks for posting such a great indulgent dessert!! :)
