PEANUT BUTTER CHEESECAKE COOKIE BARS

Eating the Peanut Butter Cake This Peanut Butter Cake will immediately send you to your sugar happy place. This cake bar recipe will be a great addition to your dessert table anytime.

Nothing I find too sweet. I am quite a heavy dessert (LOL literally).

Now my husband is on the other side, he takes a bite or two and he's done. We were at the Cheesecake Factory a few weeks ago, and we both ordered cheesecake after dinner.

Now I deliberately only eat small portions because someone has to leave room for cheesecake when you come to a place called The Cheesecake Factory. It is given.


By the way, I have no problem chugging down my cheesecake and a few bites from my husband. He had a few bites and was talking about how sweet the food was, and it was too rich for him.

He even said that he was shaking and sweating from trying to eat all that sugar. I just have to laugh at him and call him a light dessert. I guess I have more practice holding my sugar with all the desserts that I keep cranking.
