I love it when my fondness for reading and cooking coincide. Hosting my book club each year is such an occasion—and the perfect opportunity to test out new recipes.

Thank goodness my friends are willing to be my guinea pigs. This group of bright, articulate, and caring women has been meeting monthly since my youngest, Nick, was 3 years old. He’s now a junior in college.

We’ve been through lots of life’s milestones together, as well as loads of books, food, and, of course, wine. Over the next month or so, I’ll share many of the sweet and savory dishes I served. For those of you fellow bibliophiles, here is a list of the books we’ve read over the last two decades. Since March 25th was Chocolate Peanut Butter Day, I knew I’d need to serve a decadent treat using this classic combination.

Chocolate Peanut Butter Dip

We are a house divided when it comes to this classic combination of flavors. My two oldest love everything Reese’s, where Nick and the hubby like their peanut butter on sandwiches only.

I’m in the former category, so I have been antsy to make another dessert dip after the success of my Cookie Dough Dip a couple of years ago. The concept was quite similar, mixing butter, sugar, and cream cheese. But adding some creamy peanut butter and mini chocolate chips provided the quintessential combination.

My version was flavored with a modicum of peanut butter, perfect for my palate. Feel free to taste, then add another 1/4 cup or more for a stronger peanut butter flavor. Vanilla wafers and Tagalong cookies were used as dippers, but graham crackers would also suffice. If you’re on Team Chocolate and Peanut Butter, you’ll swoon when you taste this chocolate peanut butter Tagalong Dip.

My family also loves this Peanut Butter Chocolate Mousse Cake, these Homemade Reese’s Bars, Peanut Butter Cookie Cups, and these Rolo Peanut Blossoms. I think you will, too!
