This is one of those desserts that’s so simple, you almost feel bad about serving it when company’s over but then you take a bite and think, why am I not baking this all the time? It’s so much easier than baking cookies.
I whipped this up at the lake house last night and certainly didn’t plan on baking anything to photograph and write about on The Rose Table but it was really too delicious not to share. If you’re looking for one of those highly styled recipe websites where the photography is perfect, this is not it. But when my mom said, “This is literally one of the best things you’ve ever made me,” I knew I just had to post it.
I served this with homemade vanilla ice cream and a shaving of dark chocolate. It should be noted that you could easily swap out a cup of chocolate chips for the chocolate bar or use any variety of chocolate bars instead of the dark chocolate almond bar. It’s absolutely customizable. Wouldn’t a mix of peanut butter and chocolate chips with rocky road ice cream on top be fabulous?
