I'm trying to lose baby weight, but my cravings for chocolate, peanut butter, and sweets keeps getting in the way! The other day, I succumbed, and made some brownies which came out slightly overcooked around the edges. To cover that up, I looked online on a whim, and found the best recipe ever for Peanut Butter Frosting, which would satisfy my other craving and pack on more pounds. Yay! Thanks to the frosting, these turned out to be the best brownies I have possibly ever had, and made me feel so incredibly sad for people with peanut allergies. Here's the recipe, Enjoy!
Fluffy Peanut Butter Frosting (from Allrecipes.com)
- 1/2 cup butter, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 3 tablespoons milk, or as needed
- Cream the butter and peanut butter together till well-blended (and try to ignore the fact that you are about to eat all of that fatty buttery goodness). Add in the sugar gradually, mixing well. Finally, add in the milk. Mix just till blended and creamy. If you overmix, it may start to look grainy. Supposedly you can fix that by microwaving it for a couple seconds and then mixing it a bit more.
I only made HALF of this recipe to frost my pan of brownies, and I am telling you, it is soooo GOOD! The frosting tastes similar to the insides of Reese's Pieces, so if you like those, you'll love this.

Mmmm sounds so good. I'm going to try it.
Oh thanks, A new recipe that I simply HAVE to have!
Sara, no I don't have a point and shoot. :0) But if you are looking for a GREAT point and shoot for the money try the Casio EX-S10. I have a bunch of pro photographer friends that use it and swear by it as an awesome point and shoot.
Send one of those to me, stat! That looks so good!
I can't stand the temptation!!!! Heather, freeze a piece for me!
