  1. This is a favorite dessert in my house. Incredibly decadent and a perfect ending to Shabbat dinner. Make it with extra dark cocoa – AMAZING!

    One thing – I made it with chocolate chips the first time and decided they didn’t add anything. Overkill and interfered with the melt-in-your-mouth creamy texture.

    Hi Lisa – so funny you say that – I often serve it as a mousse – no pie shell in dessert cups and just do a sprinkle of choc chips on top – more for garnish (b/c I am too lazy for choc shavings)

    btw I also sometimes – up the pb to 3/4 cup and brown sugar to 2/3 cup or I follow the recipe but do heaping servings of the pb and brown sugar

    I tasted this for the first time at a cooking demonstration that Jamie did for the Skokie Kollel. After tasting this I bought both cookbooks. Tjis is absolutely my favorite.

    Hi Maureen so glad you liked! tasting something delish is the best motivation for making it!

  6. I made this incredible dessert more than once. It’s simple and absolutely delicious. Perfect for Shabbos dessert. I personally prefer it as a plain mousse served in small cups as I saw Jamie do at a demonstration.(It is very rich!)

    I have made this many times for Shabbos lunch dessert. It is extremely decadent and awesome combination of peanut butter and chocolate! I like the idea of serving it just as a mousse too.
