Foods That Should Be

Why don't we have peanut butter donuts? Or, a peanut butter muffin?

You are shopping at the wrong bakery if you can't get either of those things.

Back when I was a lad I worked as a baker. One bakery I worked at was a pretty hip place and had a really fun and funny manager named Ron. It was holiday season and we were flat out busy baking about 20 hours a day. It was insane. My specialty was to make the cheesecakes. Usually I'd make 4; two plain, a cherry swirl and a blueberry swirl. Since it was insane holiday time Ron hade me triple the recipe. Cheesecakes were the last thing we'd bake since we left them to cool in the oven overnight. (It prevented them cracking as they cooled <-- free industry secret)

So here we'd been baking since 5 am and it was now about one or two in the morning. I was running on fumes and Ron was getting punchy. I asked him what the breakdown for the cheesecakes was going to be and he said: Make 4 plain, 3 Blueberry, 3 cherry, and 2 peanut butter.

He went off the make snowflake rolls or something and I pour the batter into the springform pans and set about swirling the jam in. When I got to the PB I wasn't sure how to swirl it in since it is a lot more viscous than the jam. I think I creamed it with sugar to loosen it up a bit and put it in a pastry bag and shot the swirls into the batter.

After I was done, Ron came over and asked me what I ended up doing with the last two cheesecakes and I looked at him: What do you mean? I made peanut butter, like you said.

Apparently too much baking and not enough sleeping can make humor take long, craggy detours.

I ended up taking both cheesecakes home since no one was interested in a PB cheesecake. They ROCKED.

Oh what foods these morsels be!

Man, a free-samples advertising effort would have worked if they tasted like that. O the missed opportunity...

We tried. People were just too freaked out about the PBCC. Take a walk on the wild side.

PBCC is not in any way stranger than pumpkin cheese cake. Actually, it sounds a lot better from my perspective. Not a pumpkin fan (for eating) am I. Toss some chocolate in the peanut butter and you have a Reeses cheesecake going. I've had that and it rocks.

Um, marajuana, cheese and jalapeno pepper sliced bread? So you can toast it & eat with unsalted butter.... Although that would probably be a "repeat until empty" cycle...

Peanut Butter Cheesecake sounds like seriously a protein-packed dessert.
With a little tweaking of the recipe you could make it reasonably healthy.

it would probably be easier to name food items that peanut butter has NOT wandered onto than to think of things that it should meet up with.
