On Friday nights I like to make a dessert to help celebrate the weekend’s arrival. While flipping through Cake Mix Magic 2 by Jill Snider, from the library, I came across this simple recipe, and knew that I should try it over a devil’s food cake. My husband loves most anything with peanuts or peanut butter and this was an easy hit.

This recipe is the simplest, and yet it has a lot of punch, very rich and creamy. We really enjoyed it and hope you do too!
