Peanut butter and … fill in the blank. What first comes to mind? Jelly, perhaps? (If you were tempted to say “cupcake,” our kids have similar taste in books, and I salute you.) No, in my mind the ideal pairing with peanut butter is chocolate.
Then again, I’m inclined to pair just about anything with chocolate, so I might be biased. Still, you can’t deny the synergy these two ingredients have. Peanut butter brings a whisper of savory flavor along for the ride, reining in chocolate’s sweetness. Depending on how they’re used, peanut butter and chocolate can team up for creamy, luscious luxury or for satisfying crunch and texture.
Allergic to peanuts? Consider swapping in another nut, soy or seed butter of your choice. Cookie butter or granola butters can work in some recipes, though you may need to cut back the sugar and/or spices called for.
