New Recipe: No Bake Pudding Bars

April 2, 2013 by RecipeLion

No Bake Pudding BarsJust updated with 2 FREE eCookbooks and BONUS no-bake recipes!

Oh, peanut butter, how you tease us. Its rich and buttery flavor goes so well with its tempting friend chocolate that when the two get together, it is absolutely divine.  And even though we know peanut butter tastes great on sandwiches and on fresh apples, heck even fresh out of the jar, when it comes to desserts, recipes with peanut butter are our guilty pleasure. We can’t quit you, peanut butter, and with this new heavenly no bake dessert from our friend Amanda Formaro, we don’t think we’ll be able to any time soon.

We all know how chocolate and peanut butter go together like chips and salsa, or like ham and cheese, or even Laverne and Shirley, but what makes this recipe so delicious is that there is one more ingredient that makes it extra special, vanilla pudding. It may sound a little strange at first, but it’s this ingredient that makes the bars extra creamy. Plus, the vanilla flavor makes the melted chocolate chips a little less bitter and more like milk chocolate. With just the right amount of sweet you have to try it.

No Bake Pudding Bars have three different layers that each come together to make every bite sensational. The bottom layer is a buttery, crunchy layer made from rice krispies, cornflakes, and, of course, peanut butter. The middle layer is made from instant vanilla pudding to give it that rich and creamy flavor that we love. Lastly, the bar is topped with melted chocolate and cooled so everything sets into one decadent dessert that is just in time for spring and summer. A great no bake recipe for the family, make sure to bring these to your next family party or get-together and show everyone how peanut butter can make a dessert that much better. If you’re going to be feeding a crowd Recipe Chatter has tons of great dessert recipes, including more amazing no-bake dessert recipes.
