Peanut Butter Cup Trifle
Peanut Butter Cup Trifle I know the pic grabs you immediately–and this is beyond delicious, but you would be surprised that you can make 2 versions of this and one is (almost) guilt free. OK, there’s nothing we can do about the mini peanut butter cups, but you can reduce the amount AND they are…
