How can you not want to make this recipe after reading a title like that? Our apartment smelled amazing while this was baking- kind of like peanut butter cookies and banana bread all rolled into one. I made this bread to take to Bible study last night as my weekly dessert contribution. Its hard to believe the semester is almost over and that so many of these girls are going to be graduating from Queens. I am going to miss them SO MUCH! I will make them all promise however to come back and visit me whenever possible. I will bribe them with treats. In all serious though ladies, I’m really excited to see where you will end up next year but I will definitely be sad to see you go!
