Three weeks in the Chicagoland area sounded like a long time and yet it flew by. We saw lots and ate lots on our trip. We had one last weekend in the city before leaving the area and tried to make the most of it.
We took an architectural boat tour down the Chicago River…
took […]
Long time no see! That was the longest hiatus I’ve ever taken here on the blog, but it turns out that writing a book is a lot of work - who knew? It has been a great project to work on but has kept me away from here for far too long and I am […]
Hi! I’ve missed you! Sorry it’s taken so long for me to write but I have a great reason for my absence: I’ve been working on a cookbook! I’m actually being commissioned to co-write the book for someone else so it’s not a book entirely about chocolate and peanut butter as you may expect, but […]

Behold, the leaning tower of chocolate peanut butter bars! Bow down to its glory, mere mortal! And read on to find out where to get your own.

Custard is one of those desserts that I could generally take or leave. However, when you add chocolate, peanut butter and pretzels to it, I’m all over it! If you’re not familiar with Shake […]
This may look like your average ordinary toasted sandwich on first glance, but the “bread” is actually pound cake. Yes, I’m afraid we may have hit a new caloric high today on The CPB Gallery.
Upon flipping through the latest issue of Everyday Food (which features relatively good-for-you recipes) I was surprised to see a fried […]
I noticed an ad for this tasty looking chocolate peanut butter bundt cake on Rachael Ray’s site. I’m going to assume that the use of the word, ‘nirvana’ means that it will help bring you to some kind of chocolate peanut butter superhuman bliss. Then again, maybe the recipe’s creators were just rocking out to […]
Were peanut butter and jelly sandwiches a regular staple for you as a kid? Then you’re going to love these.
