Peanuts Chopping
This weeks recipe was brought to you by: Elizabeth of Ugg Smell Food

I think any dessert with peanut butter in it makes you think of your childhood. When I was 4 years old, I went a whole year eating peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch. I still pile it high on my sliced apples.

Peanut Butter

The recipe was simple enough to make. I left the salt out in the crust, and used honey roasted peanuts, because that’s all I had.

I thought this was a good recipe to make for a kids party, but It is so rich, I didn’t use up all the filling. The nuts and the chocolate chunks in the mousse added a nice contrast in the torte. More thoughts to come later….
