SUBMITTED BY: Karen Jagger
"'I constantly had cravings for peanut butter while I was pregnant with our second child,' says Columbia City, Indiana's Karen Jagger. 'This unusual dessert pizza satisfied me, and using a brownie mix meant I could throw it together in no time.'"
INGREDIENTS
- 1 (9 ounce) package brownie mix
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 3 bananas, sliced into 1/4 inch slices
- 1/2 cup orange or lemon juice
- 1/4 cup chopped peanuts
- 2 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
- 2 teaspoons butter (no substitutes)
