I’m so excited to introduce you to the newest member of our Creative Team… Miss Cathy from Three Kids and a Fish and she’s brought a mouth-watering dessert for us to enjoy!
I won’t keep you waiting any longer….
Hi, I’m Cathy and I am so excited to be hanging out here with Ruthie! What an honor to be here sharing one of my new favorite desserts with all of you! I love peanut butter, chocolate and mason jars and together they create a decadent, protein packed delicious dessert!
This peanut butter chocolate trifle is thick layers of peanut butter, chocolate chunks, hot fudge, homemade whipped cream and a new twist on Greek yogurt!
We hosted our first BBQ this weekend and these peanut butter chocolate trifles were the perfect sweet ending! We shared some with our neighbors during the week and all we had to do is put the lid on the mason jar and it transported great!
My sweet boy discovered that the last trifle that he had carefully concealed in the back of the refrigerator was eaten and on the brink of tears he asked if I could make these again! I would say that this dessert was a success and will be made many times over in our home!
