PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE BARS
Peanut Butter, chocolate, cake mix…how could this not be heaven. I have been making these for a couple years ever since I had them at my friend’s chocolate party. This are very, very rich. For me to say that is saying a lot.
HOW TO MAKE THEM
Make the dough which starts with a cake mix. Pour your sweetened condensed milk and chocolate mixture on top.
Spread the chocolate in an even layer.
Crumble the remaining dough on top.
CAKE MIX SIZES
Cake mix sizes have reduced in size over the years so I have adapted this recipe to reflect that.
