Double birthdays means double the birthday treats! Taste Tester and I celebrated our birthdays with Chocolate Opera Cake and Happy Face Peanut Butter Pancakes (see sketch after the break). Read on for the recipes!
Just a small note before you continue: some internet meanies have been tinkering with my site (jerks!). We are working on fixing […]

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 […]

Hi everyone, sorry for the delay in posts. I had some family obligations this week and wasn’t able to write - you know I wouldn’t skip out on my chocolate and peanut butter without good reason!

So you can imagine my excitement when I […]

Who would have thought to add mayonnaise to a cake batter recipe?
My friend Carla once told me that she suspected the condiment would add great moisture to a cake. Feeling curious, I decided to test her theory. I also challenged myself to decorate a fancy two layer cake, as it had been a while since […]

After finding this post on Tastespotting, I knew that I couldn’t go on without knowing what on earth Peanut Butter Bread tasted like. I had to make some! One of my cookbooks - the Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook - happened to have a recipe for it.
I can now rest assured with the newfound knowledge that […]
