Happy Friday! It’s an even happier Friday this week because I’ve got a great giveaway for you!
Peanut Butter Squares
from Tate’s Bake Shop Cookbook
- ¾ cup firmly packed dark or light brown sugar
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- ½ cup salted butter (softened)
- 2 cups smooth peanut butter
- 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon salted butter
- In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, powdered sugar, butter, and peanut butter, and beat them with an electric mixer until they are smooth and well blended. Pat into an ungreased 15 ½ x 10 ½ x 1-inch pan. Roll the mixture flat on top with a rolling pin.
- Melt the chocolate chips and butter on top of a double boiler or in the microwave. Spread the chocolate mixture over the peanut butter mixture and cut into squares while the chocolate is still warm and soft.
- Chill the mixture for about 15 minutes and remove the squares from the pan.

Our family favorite Christmas dessert tradition has been the most delicious Kahlua Chocolate Cake topped with a cream cheese Kahlua frosting! You have to be patient though as you must let the Kahlua soak in to the cake for at least five days for best results. Yum!

When I was a child, my mother would make fudge and divinity every Christmas Eve for our big family get-together. I was loved the balance of the dark and light colors and textures and to this day, I even like looking at photos of these 2 treats in her old BH&G checkered cookbook. Thx for asking!

Oh my. I am very selective about my cookbooks but anything promoted by Ina Garten is a keeper. I would love to have this cookbook! As for favorite holiday treat, I would have to go with gingersnaps. All of the spices make it feel like the holidays.

Definitely going to have to try these out!
My favorite holiday treats are my mom’s ‘snowball’ cookies. They are nut cookie balls, rolled in powdered sugar. (They look like the ‘wedding’ cookies you see in the store, but are different – and 1390846 times better!!!)
Ooooh I hope she makes me some for Christmas this year!!
