OMG! They are just too beautiful to be eaten, seriously. If mine looked the same way, I would never eat them. I would stare at them for hours and keep taking pictures hehe. Joke, they would be gone in no time :).
Healthy and delicious? I’m here for it! Love that sprinkling of chocolate chips 🙂

Have a fabulous holiday!
It JUST got cold here again in NC, but the forecast is predicting for it to be in the 70’s for Christmas! How lame!!! Guess I will just have to eat my feelings in peanut butter pancakes! 😉 These look fabulous, Mira! LOVE the chocolate chip sprinkles! Just looking at these babies makes me happy, so these are a must make! Pinned! Cheers, girlfriend! <3

Thought I’d leave a review of actually MAKING these! Lol Very good! But wow are they dense and filling, my [large] hub could only eat one [large] p-cake. I used natural PB, and followed everything exact except for adding a teaspoon of vanilla, using coconut milk, and thinning it out with a tiny bit more milk as suggested. I’ll definitely make these again, and the blender method is genius. I think I’ll make it more gluttonous and cook in butter next time, add that touch of crispy edge that only sinful fat can provide. Otherwise, topped with banana and real maple syrup, these are fantastic! So glad I found it, thank you!
