Chocolate Peanut Butter Stacks Recipe


If you need a ridiculously easy, no-bake dessert for a party, holiday cookie exchange, or just have a spur of the moment craving for chocolate and peanut butter, this is a perfect recipe. What I love about these little cookie, or cracker, stacks is that they�re salty and sweet, crunchy from the crackers yet creamy from the peanut butter, and gooey from marshmallow creme. Every awesome dessert quality has been rolled up into one little bite-sized bundle. They�re incredibly addictive. Read blog post for chocolate recommendations.
