Deep dish peanut butter ice cream cookie sundaes with title on a white plate

So…yeah. If you don’t like peanut butter this may not be the post for you.

Monday was my husband’s birthday. Whenever I start brainstorming what to make for his birthday, two things come to mind: carrot cake and peanut butter and chocolate.

When I asked him if there was something he wanted me to make he mentioned maybe something with peanut butter cups.

Well. Now, we all know I did that. Last year. And then some.

Also, I didn’t want to make a cake. Too much leftover. You all know my husband pretty well by now. If I made him a cake he would eat one slice and then guess you would eat the rest?

All the running in the world wouldn’t cure that, now would it?

So I made him some simple deep dish peanut butter chocolate chip peanut cookies.

And then I dressed them up like they were Cinderella, going to the ball.

No one likes a nekkid cookie. A nekkid cookie might get teased and then feel bad about itself. We can’t have that, now can we?

So I made some ice cream. Peanut butter ice cream. You know, using that two ingredient method?

{But this time I used actual whipped cream instead of Cool Whip. ‘Cuz my guy is one of those people…you know the type. The “hmmm…that’s too sweet” type. WTH does “too sweet” even mean?}

Now, normally, I would have stopped there. But since we’re dressing up the cookie, she needed some accessories. A hat, perhaps.

There she is. All dressed up and ready for the ball.

  1. What size whoopie pie pan do you use? I looked on Amazon and I see an original wilton, a smaller size then a jumbo. Is yours a Wilton as well? Please and thank you!

    1. I’m pretty sure mine was the original size (not jumbo or mini) but you can use any of the three. You can also use a muffin tin but only fill them with about 1-2 tablespoons of dough and press them down. Won’t be exactly the same, but cheaper than buying a new pan if you prefer!

  2. Dorothy,
    I came looking for pie and I ran into these beauties and now I’m drooling all over the place! Can’t wait to try these! YUM

    1. Wilton makes it, as well as a “muffin top” pan. They are basically the same thing. Search on Wilton.com and I bet you’ll find it!
