    So this is my first day in Australia! I mentioned in my  post that I was heading across the ditch and in my last post that I was going on Thursday. Well Thursday has come and gone much quicker than I thought possible and I'm now here. In Australia. With no return ticket. Yet... #anxietyisthroughtheroof

    As you can imagine the weather is beautiful but HOT. Like scorching hot and, off topic, but is it weird that like half of my bags contained chocolate and a few baking bits and bobs? Clothes? Who needs em!

    Right back to the recipe at hand.

    We all know I LOVE peanut butter and chocolate together as a flavour combination and in this heat, what better than a no bake treat? No oven required, only six ingredients needed and 15 minutes of your time.

    As you will see from the video below these no bake bake chocolate peanut butter bars come together super quick and super easy. One note I will make is I use an all natural peanut butter with no additives. Just peanuts and salt. I prefer the flavour and texture of these all natural peanut butters but any peanut butter will work.
