Nutter Butter Peanut Butter Chocolate Bark-ahhhhmazzzzzing!
I wasn’t going to share this recipe so soon. It was one I wanted to save for the Holidays. You know what I’m talking about. The time just before Thanksgiving and leading all the way to the day before Christmas. That time of year when we don’t even mention the word “diet” and everyone is in a baking mood.
It’s the time of year when food is king. Bringing family and friends together for meals but also as tokens of affection in the form of gifts.
Food gifts are the perfect gift in my opinion. Inexpensive to make, tasty to eat, fun to share, and always original.
And they show you cared enough to put a little effort and thought into the gift.
Maybe you just want an excuse to make up a batch of something so you could keep some for yourself, or maybe that’s just me?
Bark is the easiest of all the food gifts to make and always well received.

In my opinion, it’s always a good time to eat. Esp. if there’s chocolate involved!
Dawn says
Hi Joan! This looks good! You could even call it “Buckeye Bark” for the Ohio football fans! 😉
Nancy says
Hi Joan, I love peanut butter and chocolate, this sounds really good. I have a stupid question, approximately what size tray do you use?
Joan Hayes says
Nancy, I use my Large cookies sheet just so I have room to play. You won’t spread this all the way to the edges. Just create a yummy “slab” in the middle.

Have you ever tried making these with a dark chocolate or Nutella? I’m curious if it’s possible (I rarely bake), but am looking for some dark chocolate/peanut butter mix of something for the holidays. These look amazing, so do you have any suggestions/alternatives I could try to achieve this with one of those alternatives? Thanks so much!! 🙂
Joan Hayes says
Because this is a candy (like a candy bar) you need to use a chocolate that will harden back up such as chocolate bark or candy melts. Wilton does make a dark chocolate one (you can find them at Micheals, Hobby Lobby and JoAnns) I’d steer clear of trying to use Nutella in this, since it’s a nut product with lots of nut oil, it probably wouldn’t harden up.
Dark Chocolate Lover says
Ooooh, I think I just found my answer! How about this: Espresso Bean Dark Chocolate Bark with your Nutter Butter bites?! Here’s the website for the bark part: https://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2010/10/the-secret-ingredient-coffee-espresso-b.html?ref=title
I’m thinking instead of your peanut butter chips, use espresso beans. Then make the chocolate bark with espresso like the other recipe. Now add in your Nutter Butter cookies, and BAM!!! That sounds like the perfect mix of dark chocolate/coffee/peanut butter that I’m looking for. What do you think? Would it work?
Joan Hayes says
Oh yes, this would work! I’d still try to use candy melts or chocolate bark instead of regular chocolate (like chips or baking chocolate) as those may not harden back up. But the espresso powder and beans would be amazing!
Dark Chocolate Lover says
Thanks for the advice. I will definitely stick to chocolate bark then. and try adding the espresso powder and beans. Here’s to hoping it turns out and tastes divine! 🙂 I’m excited!!
