Nutter Butter Bark

October 16, 2011 By Naomi Robinson | Bakers Royale 26 Comments

Staying the course of simple and easy, I’ve got a 3 ingredient, 25 minutes, no-bake dessert that will make you a hero. This Nutter Butter Bark is full of rich and creamy goodness. Caught between the melted Reese’s peanut butter chips and dark chocolate are chunks of chopped Nutter Butter Cookie Sandwich. The Nutter Butter gives an otherwise texturally monotone, but smooth, bark some crunch.

I know, I make many proclamations about my baked goods. And you’re probably wondering what can I possibly offer in my defense for such a grandiose statement?

Well, I like to aim high. In this case, not much other than my friends telling me this is “baking hero” material. In other words, this bark created a lot of sweet satisfied smiles. And, I should clarify-a friend not friends made this statement. But do nodding heads in agreement of such a statement count for the plural use of “friends” here? Maybe.

But like I told her, that’s a sound bite. And since this is a written blog, how I wrote it, is how it shall be conveyed.

I guess you’ll just have to make this to find out on your own if this will recipe will make you a baking hero.

A few notes:

  • For those of you who may not know what Nutter Butter Cookie Sandwiches are-think Oreo cookies, but Nutter Butter is made with peanut butter cookies and at the center is a peanut butter creme filling.
  • You can certainly make this treat without the Nutter Butter, but I’m all about texture so I wanted something to break up the chocolate and peanut butter.
  • The recipe can easily be doubled, tripled and beyond to suit your needs.
  • To lessen the hands on time even more, use mini Nutter Butter cookies to bypass chopping the cookies into small pieces.
  • Completely unrelated-For those waiting for the mini crepe cake I blurped about featuring . . . well, I’m sorry, I have to re-do the recipe. The frosting was a fantastic flop, but more on that later when I do feature the successful finish.

Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we Shrimp and Corn Chowder ~ When things go crazy we go simple! Who else feels this? #ad Back to school has been off to a rocky start with mixed up carpool rides to missed days from being sick. Thankfully soups like this come together quickly and easily. All you need are just a handful of fresh ingredients and some pantry staples like @enjoyrealcoco Coconut Milk and @kettleandfire Bone Broth. Both of which are @TetraPakUSA  packaged. This means I can stock my pantry and not worry about rotating the food month-to-month. The aseptic packaging solution helps unopened food have a shelf life of six months or more without the need for refrigeration or preservatives. I’m telling you it’s the little things, like food packaging—something you don’t even think about most days, that ends up being the thing that can have the biggest impact sometimes! #ProtectsWhatsGood

Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumna Who’s ready to roll into fall with cozy, autumnal picnics? To kickstart the season, the kids and I are headed to the park to enjoy an Apple Spiced Cake and warm sips of Apple Cider sweetened with our favorite pantry staple, @truvia. #ad

Truvia Sweet Complete Sweeteners are zero-calorie and made with plant-based stevia sweetness. Whether you are using the All-Purpose, Brown, or Confectioners Sweetener, they measure cup-for-cup like sugar in your favorite seasonal baked goods! 

Apple Spiced Cake 
Serves 12 

3 cups (14 oz.) self-rising flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoon ground ginger
1 teaspoon fresh grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves 
3 eggs
1 cup (6.25 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Sweetener 
1 cup (5.75 oz.) Truvia Sweet Complete Brown Sweetener 
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup vegetable oil 
1 1/2 cups (5.5 oz.) peeled and shredded granny smith apple, about 2 large

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a 10-12 cup bundt pan with non-stick spray. Set aside. 

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and cloves. Set aside.

In a second large bowl, add the eggs, and beat until combined. Add both the Truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose and Brown Sweeteners, whisk until fully incorporated. Pour in buttermilk, vanilla extract, and vegetable oil, whisk until combined. 

Fold dry ingredients into the wet until smooth. Add the grated apples and fold until just combined. 

Pour batter in prepared pan and bake for 45 minutes or until a cake tester comes out free of wet batter. Transfer cake to a wire rack and let cool in the bundt pan for 20 minutes. Unmold cake and let cool completely on a wire rack. Before serving, dust with Truvia Sweet Complete Confectioners Sweetener. Enjoy outside with a seasonal beverage!
