Is it the way it melts in your mouth without sticking to the roof of your mouth? Is it the sweetness and the saltiness combination that you taste? Is it the tiny little pieces of peanut that you feel in your mouth? Or is it all of the above? <a href="http://www.wysegyrlscupcakes.com/" / rel="nofollow"> buttercups cupcakes </a> What is so special about Reese’s peanut butter cups?

It's still mainly a cultural thing, American culture, to be specific. Anyone who was raised in America or on American Pop Culture will most likely appreciate PB, but for the majority of Filipinos, not so much. My Peanut Butter-themed ice creams have always sold slower than average. You know what Filipinos DO love? Almost without fail? Nutella. I've substituted Nutella in the same flavor (Banana Nutella, Chocolate and Nutella Chunks, Nutella with Nutella swirl, etc) and the flavor goes FAST. I would suggest to any baker to fiddle around with Nutella more because Pinoys just LOVE the stuff. Lori! Nutella Butter Cups please!!! heheheheheh As someone who has tried to introduce several Peanut-Butter-themed Ice Cream flavors (fluffernutter, Banana Peanut Butter, etc) the reason you dont see a lot of Peanut Butter-based desserts is that the Filipino Mainstream just isnt as embracing of it.

Just by looking at the picture of the glorious PB dessert, my mouth was already salivating! I can't wait for the next dessert that would be featured on your Sugar Series. Too bad for the diabetics, resisting the urge to feast on these desserts would really be a pain. I really admire you Ms. Lori for the wonderful desserts (and non-desserts) that you review regularly here in your site. Truly, you are an inspiration to us foodies. More power to you! Oh my!

She made the cake, and Lori, it's the very definition of scrumptious!!! Super moist cake (you can tell why by looking at the recipe, despite the fact it only uses cocoa, not chocolate), strong peanut butter flavor in the frosting, and just altogether unforgettable. Everyone in my family -- and you know what demanding dessert addicts we are -- was floored. In fact, my sis wasn't able to buy enough cream cheese for the frosting, so there was less than there should've been, but we didn't miss it at all. And this was one of the VERY, VERY RARE times when a regular-sized slice was too much for us. People warn about thin slices all the time, but we don't usually believe it. But this cake is so rich and heavy, that a sliver will sit in your stomach like a rock...albeit, a divinely delicious rock.
