This is fantastic! I added a splash of vanilla and about 1/3 C of powdered sugar to the whipping cream.

A very easy to make dessert for peanut butter lovers. I liked how it blended with one of my favourite ingredients - the cream cheese. Like the options - am sure it would be great with the chocolate crust as it would serving it in martini glasses as hepcat suggested. Will be keeping the ingredients on hand for those times when I need a quick dessert. A Spring Pac thank you recipe that was fun to make.

I chose this recipe for PAC Spring '09. I prepared this as part of my Easter dinner and everyone loved it. There was one piece left the next morning and my son had it for breakfast. Very easy to prepare and great flavor. Thanks for posting a recipe I will be preparing often.
