Notes about Recipes in this book

  • Peanut butter pie with crunchy chocolate bark

    • hbakke on June 24, 2021

      Delicious pie that I made for Father's day. The chocolate whipped cream topping wasn't overly sweet and paired well with the sweeter peanut butter mousse and chocolate bark. It wasn't the easiest (or prettiest) pie to get a clean slice out of the pie dish. It was pretty messy, but I would make this again.
