I am always amazed on some of these food network competitive shows when one of the
contestants will use the Elvis Presley peanut butter and banana sandwich as a basis
for their entry dish. This sandwich just seems to surface again and again.
When I was very young I could not stand peanut butter but now in my twilight years
I rather like it. A few days ago I made what was perhaps my first peanut butter and boysenberry
jam sandwich in a year (boysenberry being my favorite berry for jam, preserves and milkshakes).
It was delicious.
Then I began to think what a cocktail would be like if it had peanut butter in it.
I did a Google search using peanut butter and cocktail and much
to my surprise I pulled up a couple of drink recipes using this ingredient. And...
Lo and Behold... I found this drink named... Tim's Peanut Butter Cup. What could be more
in line with my thoughts.
Although the drink is rather tasty I probably won't make it that often.
Tim's Peanut Butter Cup
2 tsp. Peanut Butter
1 1/2 oz. Kahlua
1 oz. Chocolate Liqueur
Heavy Cream
Blend with ice until smooth. Pour into a highball glass and garnish with
whipped cream and a cherry. Enjoy!!!
Btw, has anyone had an Elvis sighting lately. A political commentator recently remarked
that 6 percent of the American public thought that the current stimulus package was
working while 7 percent of the public thought that Elvis was still alive.
