    OMG, this is sooooo sinfully good, easy to make, clear directions but boy is it rich. Be sure and cut into small pieces but heaven for any chocolate and PB lovers like me. It makes a ton of frosting, way to much so think I'd cut that in half next time, but other than that would not change a thing. Made for PAC fall 2011
