Hope you all had the merriest holidays marked by festive feasts, as I did. Above is an excellent interview with a chef / writer that is well worth reading. And below is some detail about a yummy treat I made to give as gifts recently.
2 C graham cracker crumbs
1.5 C powdered sugar
1 C chunky peanut butter
1/2 C butter, melted
1/2 C chopped salted peanuts
1.5 C melted milk chocolate
Lightly grease an 11 x 7" baking pan. In large bowl mix all ingredients except chocolate. Press mixture into pan. Melt chocolate, mixing until smooth. Spread evenly over mixture in pan. Chill until set and then cut into bars.
