News Alert: The Chocolate Peanut Butter Gallery is taking a short break from Fancy Food Show Coverage in lieu of the holiday. Full coverage shall resume tomorrow!
Holidays are busy, it’s hot and there’s a pool calling my name. I don’t want to be slaving in the kitchen making some elaborate dessert and I’m sure you […]

Peanut Butter Monkey with Banana and Chocolate Chips
June 23rd, 2008
How adorable is this? It was made for a kid but as an adult I could eat it too, right? Right?!
This crazy cute sandwich was created as an entry for The Crafty Crow Funny Food Contest. Unfortunately the contest ended yesterday but I think it’s still worth checking the blog out for the voting process […]
Frozen Peanut Butter Chocolate Banana Loaf
June 11th, 2008
Here’s an interesting alternative to ice cream as a “stay cool” dessert for the summer. And by interesting I mean, delicious.
The base of this dessert is made with the simple combination of semi-sweet chocolate, banana puree, creamy peanut butter and heavy cream. It’s frozen and topped with chopped nuts.
What I love about this recipe is […]
Banana Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Icing
June 4th, 2008
I recently received Crescent City Cooking by Susan Spicer as a gift. My taste tester decided to try out her recipe for Chocolate Chip Cake with Peanut Butter Cream Cheese Icing, but used the batter to make cupcakes instead of a full on cake. He made them while visiting family in Chicago, but was kind […]
French Toast (continued)
May 21st, 2008
A while back I tried making some Banana Dark Chocolate Stuffed French Toast. It was a pretty good first attempt, but it tasted a little more like a panini as opposed to french toast probably because I didn’t let the bread soak for long enough. The flavor was right but overall it was too crunchy […]
Fluffernutter Torte

To cap off a week of culinary creativity at The CPB Gallery, check out this amazing cake. It was made by Heather Gilbert (also known as flickr user Alizarin8) who is clearly a culinary genius. This is the anatomy (it contains 6 layers and 3 garnishes!) from bottom to top:
Pate sucre, salted peanut caramel, banana […]
Quaker Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Rice Cakes
April 5th, 2008
I promote a lot of unhealthy foods on this website. This is pretty obvious, given the site’s name. What may not be so obvious is that aside from eating rich desserts, I actually eat pretty healthfully on the whole. One of my all time favorite healthy snacks since childhood has been rice cakes. To those […]
Flourless Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Cookies
March 18th, 2008
Come on, does that photo get your mouth watering a bit or what?
Assuming you didn’t see the headline of this post, could you tell by that photo that these cookies are flourless and vegan?! Well I think it’s pretty great that one recipe can satisfy not one but two special diet needs. And if you […]
White Chocolate Peanut Butter Panini
February 22nd, 2008
Being that the filling in this sandwich is so soft, it’s best to use a hearty bread for a bit of contrast of textures. But if you can’t get your hands on a crusty italian bread from the bakery, one of the nuttier breads from the grocery store will do nicely as well. Try a […]
Banana Dark Chocolate Stuffed French Toast
February 17th, 2008
Do you even need convincing with this one? It sure as hell beats a bowl of wheaties in the morning. Recipe after the break.
