For all the peanut butter lovers out there, you know there's nothing better than a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup or a good PB&J sandwich. And if you're a true peanut butter addict, you love peanut butter with just about anything (chocolate, fruit, on a sandwich, and my favorite, by the spoonful). So, here are a few great recipes with a different spin on using peanut butter to get your mouth watering in anticipation for that first gooey, peanut buttery bite.
