1. It’s like a PB hug in a bowl, and let’s be real — who doesn’t need that?
2. You’ll feel like a kitchen wizard even if you forgot to preheat the oven.

How to Make It

Okay, buckle up. Imagine you’re chatting with your bestie, and you’ve got a spoon in one hand and a toddler attempting a jailbreak in the other. Start by mixing your peanut butter and sweet nectar of brown sugar destiny in a saucepan. Stir that it like you mean it, but don’t get too carried away or it’ll burn (been there, cooked that). Once the alchemy begins, toss in the vanilla extract like you’re some kind of culinary witch. Stir, stir, taste, and maybe do a little dance. Get it all sticky and glorious. Pour it into your chosen vessel — be brave. Let that beauty cool, but honestly, who’s got time for that? Dive in with a spoon, just like the universe intended.

Ingredient Notes

– Peanut Butter: Get the good stuff ’cause, well, it’s the star of the show. Don’t go low-fat. Trust me, tried it once — it wasn’t cute.
– Brown Sugar: It’s the goddess of sweet things. Don’t skimp, but don’t sweat it if you spill a little. It happens.
– Vanilla Extract: The secret weapon. A splash is good; the whole bottle is a party, but maybe not here.
– Optional: Hey, toss in some chocolate chips or a pinch of salt if you’re feeling fancy. I tried it once, and golly, it was divine.

Recipe Steps:

1. Mix the peanut butter and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat.
2. Stir continuously to prevent sticking and charring.
3. Add in the vanilla extract, stirring until combined.
4. Pour the mixture into a suitable dish, let it cool slightly, and enjoy.

What to Serve It With

Serve it with a glass of cold milk or your fave oat milk — whatever keeps you cozy. A dollop of ice cream doesn’t hurt either.

Tips & Mistakes

I mean, I’ve burnt it before because I got caught up in ‘90s boy band nostalgia. So, stay focused, but forgive yourself if it happens.

Storage Tips

Toss leftovers (if there are any — unlikely scenario) in an airtight container and pop them in the fridge. It won’t stay around long, but if you manage, it’s just as good cold, maybe better. Midnight snack approved!

Variations and Substitutions

I’ve swapped the brown sugar for honey once — went surprisingly great, though it wouldn’t win any beauty contests. And don’t be afraid to throw in some crushed pretzels if you want a salty surprise. You do you, boo!

Frequently Asked Questions

I can’t have gluten… will this still work?

Totally. Just switch the soy sauce for tamari or coconut aminos. I’ve done it more times than I can count. Still tastes bomb.

Do I have to peel the pineapple first? Asking for a friend.

Yeah… definitely peel it. Unless you’re into chewing bark. It’s not fun, trust me.

Can I use canned pineapple instead of fresh?

Been there, done that. Just drain it like your life depends on it. Still good, just not *as* wow.

How sweet is this? Can I tone it down a bit?

You totally can. Cut the sugar a little or swap in honey or maple syrup. I’ve done both when I ran out of brown sugar.

What if I skip the sesame oil?

Honestly? It’s fine. You’ll lose that toasted vibe, but it’s not a dealbreaker. Still delicious.

Have fun in the kitchen, and remember, it’s all about making something that feels like home!
