This dessert is good and easy to make. It's very rich so make sure you cut the pieces very small. You can drizzle chocolate syrup over the top for presentation.

We loved this! I used peanut butter Oreos instead of the Nutter Butters, low fat cream cheese and Cool Whip Lite. Delicious - we will be making this often.

Yes, delicious and SO rich! I added a bit of extra peanut butter to the chocolate mixture because I know my guests LOVE peanut butter. It was a big hit and the loaf size was enough for a dinner party and left overs.

This dessert is super easy to make and oh so good. The combination of chocolate and peanut butter is a winner. I've tried finely chopped peanuts on top instead of crushed cookies and also chopped pecans which are excellent too. You can cut back on the fat and calories by using reduced fat cream cheese and fat free Cool Whip and not lose a bit of the flavor.

I love to make this dessert. I have brought it for family parties and also for girls night in. I have always received great complements and requests for the recipe. I usually make two because everyone loves it and it disappears fast.
