Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars

I found this post in my drafts, I'm pretty sure I posted the recipe before, but it's so yummy, it's worth posting again. In fact now I'm so craving it I think I will bake up a pan today.

Peanut Butter Chocolate Bars 
Preheat oven to 325
1 (18.25) package yellow cake mix  (I used caramel cake mix)
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup creamy peanut butter (I used a caramel almond spread)
2 eggs
Combine in a large bowl and mix until smooth.  Press into a 9 x 13 pan reserving 1 1/2 cup mixture to crumble on top.
1 (12 oz) package semi-sweet chocolate chips
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
Melt in a small pan and pour over cake mixture.
Crumble the reserved cake mixture on to top evenly.
Bake for 20 - 25 minutes.  Cool completely before cutting into bars

Vodka Pickles

I've had this recipe in my phone for a year and with having some leftover cheap vodka from making vanilla, I decided it was time to give it a whirl. I haven't cracked open one to actually taste them and I probably should before I post the recipe. I'll post an update after I have tried them.

Here is the recipe if you want to whip up a batch.

Vodka Pickles

Cucumbers

6 cups of water

1/3 cup of canning salt

1 tablespoon sugar

1 ½ ups white vinegar

1 up vodka

Garlic clove

½ teaspoon of dill weed

Wash cucumbers.

In clean jars add garlic, dill weed and cucumbers.

Boil water then add salt, sugar, vinegar and vodka.

Pour over cucumbers and seal jars.
