Introduction – it’s Halloween!

It’s officially my favourite time of year!

I really am a big child at heart, and I absolutely love the lead up to Halloween. Growing up in rural Canada Halloween was A. Big. Thing. and this excitement seems to have carried on into my adulthood. I love dressing up (I’ve got a dress and a very witchy cloak I bring out every October!), and I love getting creative with themed Halloween recipes.

This year, I’ve made the most indulgent, rich and creamy peanut butter and chocolate cheesecake recipe to share with you! 

The key ingredient is SKIPPY® Peanut Butter, a delicious, creamy and incredibly versatile ingredient; perfect for this no-bake recipe.

Creamy Skippy Peanut Butter #SkippyHalloween

About SKIPPY® Peanut Butter

SKIPPY® Peanut Butter is made from the finest American peanuts that have been finely ground, resulting in a nut-packed taste, creamy texture and melt in the mouthfeel. This smooth texture makes SKIPPY® Peanut Butter easy to incorporate into no-bake treats, like this Halloween cheesecake recipe.

SKIPPY® Peanut Butter has a US heritage spanning more than 80 years: in 1933, Joseph Rosenfield changed the formula for peanut butter to create SKIPPY® Peanut Butter, which was less sticky and longer-lasting – no longer would peanut butter stick to the roof of your mouth!

SKIPPY® Peanut Butter (RRP £2.40 per 340g jar) is now widely available in Smooth and Extra Crunchy varieties, on sale in major UK supermarkets including Sainsbury’s, Morrisons, Costco, International section of Tesco and Ocado.

No-Bake SKIPPY® Peanut Butter Cheesecake

Last month I was invited to Georgia, USA on an American Peanut Education Tour. I’m still drafting the Farm to Fork blog post about this adventure, so watch this space! 

It was an incredible trip, and I now know more about American peanuts than I ever thought there was to know about peanuts! Peanuts are a very versatile and nutritious ingredient. There will be many more peanut recipes appearing on my website from now on.

American Peanuts – Fun Facts!

  • they grow underground.
  • peanuts are classified as a legume botanically and as a nut nutritionally. That means they have the best of both worlds, containing key nutrients found in both families.
  • peanut butter is the leading use of peanuts produced in the UK, and by law American peanut butter must contain at least 90% peanuts.
  • half of the top 10 selling candy bars in the USA contain peanuts or peanut butter.
  • peanuts are naturally cholesterol-free
  • they also contain more protein than any other nut: more than 7 grams per 1 oz of peanuts (or 2 tbsp of peanut butter)

    I love a no bake cheese cake just about as much as I love peanut butter – which is A LOT!!! I think I might make this for Thursday for our annual Halloween get together! I just can’t convince my family about pumpkin pie which is a shame…

    The cheesecake looks delicious but looking at the ingredients it seems very “heavy”. I think I might try it out some time but replace the cream with something like yogurt. Not sure if that’s gonna work out though!

    OMG this would be the hit of the party. I LOVE those spiders you have there. My grandkids would think this is so cool. I know there would be NO leftovers at the end of the night.
