Chubby Hubby Popcorn Munchies
When I first started dating my husband his favorite ice cream was Ben & Jerry’s Chubby Hubby. For me just about every ice cream is my favorite, but I have to admit that Chubby Hubby is pretty darn good. OK, it’s better than darn good! If I had it as often as I’d like, it’d be called Chubby Wifey! 🙂
How can you go wrong with peanut butter, chocolate and pretzels? You can’t!
I was thinking about what to serve for the Super Bowl and thought popcorn is always a great snack while watching the game, so why not make it a sweet treat? This is so great for a party because it’s so super easy and tasty beyond belief. This makes a huge batch perfect for a party but I’ve even made it for just my family. I had to give half to my friend because it was so good I couldn’t stop snacking.

Does the peanut butter harden? and become not messy?
