Sometimes you just need CHOCOLATE (and peanut butter)!!

I'm not really the "Betty Crocker" type but I do have a few tricks up my sleeve. My family absolutely LOVES my Peanut Butter Fudge and Chocolate Peanut Butter No Bakes. I looked in the cabinet and I had all the ingredients to make them both this week! My husband's response to the PB Fudge "What made you decide to make this?", to which I responded "Are you complaining?" and his final response "No, make more!" HA! Gotta love it when I surprise the family late in the evening with yummy treats!

Sometimes we just need chocolate (and peanut butter)! They are nice sweet relaxing ingredients by themselves or together!

And I must add the day after I made the Peanut Butter Fudge - I worked on 3 websites! So go make yourself a treat - it truly will get your creative juices flowing!
