My New Obsession

If you know me at all, you know that I’m slightly obsessed with peanut butter.  I’ve been know to eat spoonful's out of the jar.  I eat it on apples, on celery sticks, on carrot sticks…actually, I’m pretty sure I’d eat it on just about anything. 

When I first came across this recipe on one of my favorite blogs, Picky Palate, I knew I was destined to make it.  It’s main ingredient is peanut butter, with the second ingredient being Oreos.  That’s right, I said it, Oreos.  Followed by the last ingredient, white chocolate chips.  I’m going to give you a moment to imagine the goodness…

Are you drooling yet?  Please.  I beg you.  Stop what you’re doing right now.  Make this peanut butter.  Then, grab a spoon and dig in, while you check out some of Jenny’s other amazing recipes on her blog.

Enjoy!

Cookies and Cream Peanut Butter, by Picky Palate

Ingredients

  • 10 whole Oreo Cookies (I added a whole roll of Oreos, which I think is about 15…because really, why not?)
  • 2 Cups creamy peanut butter (Per Jenny’s recommendation, I used a “natural” pb, since we’re adding so much sweetness)
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

Directions

  1. Crush Oreos into small pieces and place into a large bowl.  Add 2 cups peanut butter.
  2. Place white chips and 2 tablespoons peanut butter into a double boiler and stir until melted OR microwave in 30 second intervals.Add to bowl of Oreos and peanut butter. 
  3. Stir just a little so you have a bit of swirls of chocolate throughout.  Place peanut butter into a jar!
