Peanut Butter Icecream

I thought I got this idea from Nigella (and I still might have) except when I tried to find the recipe, it turns out hers involves adding peanut butter to the chocolate sauce rather than the icecream. Never mind my version was delish ;)

Tub of good quality Vanilla icecream (we had Green & Blacks but it doesn't need to be QUITE that good)
2-3 T crunchy peanut butter

Take icecream out of freezer and allow to soften.
Spoon into a mixing bowl, add peanut butter and stir. Not too vigourously, it's nice to leave a bit of a swirl ;)
Once you've mixed in the PB, return icecream mix to the tub, replace the lid and put it back in the freezer for 30 mins or so. I left it as long as it took me to make chocolate sauce, which wasn't QUITE long enough but it was still yummy.

chocolate sauce

1/2 block of 70% bittersweet chocolate
big glug of cream

Melt chocolate in the microwave, stir cream through. Pour over icecream and feel your ar$e getting bigger as soon as it touches your lips!
