If you haven’t noticed, we really love peanut butter.

Last week, we were having it in our smoothies, and this week, it’s going into a delicious cheesecake. Forget the Bikini Body, please – let’s celebrate summer by getting stuck into a jar of PB. Here’s 20 of our favourite peanut butter desserts for you to try in London:

1. Peanut Butter Sarnie: Spuntino

Spunt

What: Peanut butter and jelly sandwich dessert (£6)

Why: This is as delicious and naughty as it sounds. The ‘sandwich’ isn’t actually bread, but basically red fruit jam in between two layers of delicious peanut butter ice cream. What’s not to like? Spuntino is a great date spot, and this dessert is sure to make sparks fly.

Where: 61 Rupert Street, Soho, London, W1D 7PW.

2. Peanut Butter Cookies: Ben’s Cookies

What: Peanut butter cookie (£1.45)

Why: If a large queue of Italian school children doesn’t sway your decision to visit Ben’s Cookies, quite frankly I don’t know what will. The peanut butter cookie is a far cry from the cookies you find in the supermarket, with their peanut butter cookie full of nutty loving. Best eaten when warm. Nom.

What: Peanut butter crunch bar with black forest sorbet (£8.75)

Why: This restaurant is the perfect balance of contemporary and classic, with chic oak tables, amazing artwork and an open kitchen to watch the action first hand. It’s famous for grill food, including beef, fish and shellfish, but you can’t miss the weird and wonderful desserts. Try the Lobster Mac n’ Cheese for ultimate decadence.

Where: 34 Grosvenor Square, W1K 2HD (entrance on South Audley Street)

They also serve a delicious sweet crepe with Skippy peanut butter and blackcurrant jam, if frozen yogurt’s not your thing. Which it should be. Because it’s delicious.

Why: All Crosstown’s delicious doughnuts are individually handmade and made fresh every day. The dough is made from scratch in house – as are all the incredible glazes, jams, compotes and fillings. You can get them at sites throughout London, but we love picking one up with a Flat White at Kopapa Cafe in Covent Garden. This doughnut is a take on the classic all-American peanut butter and jelly sandwich with Crosstown sourdough, a layer of thick peanut butter on top, homemade blackcurrant jam and crushed peanuts. Ultimate treat.

Get it with a dessert wine and consider yourself a very happy bunny.

8. Peanut Butter Cupcakes: Primrose Bakery

peanut butt

What: Chocolate peanut butter cupcake (£2.75)

Why: You can’t not fall in love with this cute  bakery that makes handmade cupcakes, layer cakes and slices just like you would make at home (or much better in my case) – it’s a total girly paradise. All their cupcakes are totally delicious – and the Red Velvet cake is worth crossing London for – and the peanut butter cupcake is one of the finest. The chocolate peanut butter cupcake is top; a peanut sponge with a sweet milk chocolate icing, it comes with peanut flavoured chocolate drops and is total perfection.

What: Concrete jungle – vanilla custard, marshmallow sauce, fresh banana and peanut butter sauce

Why: There’s more to Shake Shack than burgers and cheese fries, their concretes are insanely good. The base is frozen custard, blended at high speed with mix ins. The marshmallow sauce and peanut butter sauce is a taste sensation and a flavour we didn’t think would work, we were wrong. You can also add in extra mix ins including caramel sauce, chocolate hazelnut brownie or brown sugar biscuit. We pick the peanut butter sauce every time.

We say it’s bang on.

15. Peanut Butter Tart: Christopher’s

image001

What: Chocolate, peanut butter and caramel tart with espresso ice cream (£8)

Why: We know it: that’s a lot of flavours in one. But it just works. The tart is a combination of the best things in life – chocolate-y, peanut-y, caramel goodness – with a bitter, tart ice cream. Christopher’s is London’s first proper American restaurant and it still remains a classic; come on the weekend for their new Superfood Brunch with lots of healthy delights like Buckwheat pancakes and Chia pudding. For the less healthy, their Nutella Martini with vanilla vodka, Crème de Cacao, cream, Nutella & shaved chocolate is traffic-haltingly good. Swanky as hell, this place will make you feel like a right Southern Belle.

The puddings are also to die for; the signature ‘sinful’ brownie is just that with lashings of vanilla ice cream and peanut butter. Anyone who puts magic shell on a dessert gets our vote.
