Ingredients
Scale
Ingredients
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prepare the chocolate mixture: In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the chocolate chips and milk, stirring frequently until smooth and melted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Whip the cream: In a chilled mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. This will create a light and fluffy base for the dessert.
- Combine peanut butter and whipped cream: In another bowl, gently fold the creamy peanut butter into the whipped cream until fully incorporated and smooth.
- Layer the dessert: In a freezer-safe dish or individual serving cups, gently layer half of the peanut butter cream mixture, then drizzle half of the melted chocolate mixture over it. Repeat with the remaining peanut butter cream and chocolate layers.
- Freeze the dessert: Cover the dish with plastic wrap or lids and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm and well set.
- Serve: Remove from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving to soften slightly for easier spooning. Optionally, garnish with chopped peanuts or a drizzle of additional melted chocolate.
Notes
- Use smooth peanut butter for the creamiest texture.
- Adjust the amount of powdered sugar based on your preference for sweetness.
- For a dairy-free alternative, substitute coconut cream for heavy cream.
- Allow the dessert to soften slightly before scooping for best texture.
- Store leftovers tightly covered in the freezer for up to 1 week.
