Peanut Butter Recipes from Smuckers

I love Smucker's Natural peanut butter--the first time I use the jar. It tastes good, and if you stir long enough the texture is good. I hate that it needs to be refrigerated. Cold peanut butter is difficult to stir, does not make a tasty sandwich, and often doesn't mix well into recipes. It would work well in a recipe that calls for heat while mixing, like fudge or no-bake cookies. Hmmm, maybe I need to make more fudge.

This is a snail-mail offer only. But we all remember how to do that, right?

Recipes in Your Inbox

I just discovered Cooking with Jif, a free email newsletter with links to new recipes and special promos. The current issue has some tasty-looking desserts, but I think I may try the Asian Peanut Broccoli Salad. It doesn't contain any peanut butter, just nuts, so maybe we shouldn' be talking about it. Shhhh--don't tell!

Iced Peanut Butter Cup Coffee

I've had something similar but hot in a local coffee shop, but it is too hot to experiment with hot coffee recipes. This blended coffee freeze is one of my favorites:

Put 2 double shots of espresso or really strong coffee into a blender. Add a handful of large ice cubes and enough milk to cover them (about a cup). Add 2 tablespoons of peanut butter. Pour in an ounce each of chocolate and caramel syrups. Blend until the ingredients are evenly mixed, pour into your favorite cup, and if you're feeling a bit indulgent add a plop of whipped cream.

I'm In, Are You?

The Entrecard Cookbook (not just recipes) is a creative project to share with the Entrecard community. It is totally volunteer on the part of staff and participants. They are collecting recipes and other creative works, such as tidbits of humor, web comics, and "other" (i.e., poetry, drawings, and sketches).

Submissions will be made into an Ebook with links to the participating blogs. The Ebook will be distributed via the Entrecard "official" site (it will be turned over to them when it is finished). Contributors also receive a post that includes a link to their blog on the Entrecard Cookbook Blog.

The Peanut Butter Blog has submitted a recipe, and from what I can tell there's still room for more contributions. Check out the official Entrecard Cookbook Blog for complete details and to contribute something.
