We’re over a month into the new school year now, and things are getting a bit crazy. I was so pleased with how the start of the school year went – everyone adjusting to new schedules well, me keeping on top of the chore list, cooking healthy dinners, etc. A month later? We’ve started to slip a little bit.
It hasn’t helped that work has been tough – I’ve been doing 80 hours worth of work in 30 hours a week. Someone finally showed up, so I’m hoping that I’ll have some relief soon, after he gets trained up. But the past few weeks? Ugh. They’ve been pretty stressful. I’ve craved junk food and an evening glass of wine. I’ve arrived home exhausted, both mentally and physically.
But I really have no excuse to not have fresh fruit on hand for snacking, especially when I can whip up this dip to satisfy my sweet tooth in just a minute or two. While I want this dip in my fridge at all times, just for snacking, it’s also great for setting out when entertaining, to make a fruit tray a little more exciting. I chose to make my fruit platter with apple slices, bananas and strawberries, but use whatever you and your family would like!
Recipe Notes for Peanut Butter Chocolate Fruit Dip:
- This recipe calls for powdered chocolate peanut butter. I have also made this with powdered peanut butter, and it was really good. Powdered peanut butter varieties are easily found at most grocery stores, at least in my area, but there’s also an Amazon (affiliate) link at the bottom of this post, in case you have trouble finding it.

This is such a great idea! Love that it’s so easy to make!
Ugh, I don’t know how you did it. I hope things are better for you now. My hubby worked an extremely physical 80+ hour week a few weeks ago and his brain was drained. This fruit dip sounds great, I am a huge peanut butter fan!
I hope work has gotten a little (or a lot) less stressful for you! This looks like the perfect antidote!
You just made fruit even better!
Did you say chocolate and peanut butter! The best kind of dip! I love this for fresh fruit and it would be amazing with pretzels too!
Oh yeah – pretzels would be really good!
Having cut up fruits and veggies on hand is a good idea, especially when you are stressed out and looking for a snack! And the dip sounds like the perfect match for the fruit!
This is perfect any time! I agree with Nikki – pretzels would be good too.
