Homemade White Chocolate Peanut Butter.
So… you want to know what kind of peanut butter was in that peanut butter and jelly snack cake?
It would be these peanuts.
Churned into this.
Then swirled into this.
Oh… with a little bit of this throw in.
And changing this beauty…
…into this.
Yes.
Please.
I think we all know my deep obsession with white chocolate wonderful peanut butter. What we don’t all know is how serious my jar-a-week habit is. Well, I know. Mr. How Sweet knows.
Our bank account knows.
My jeans know.
Something had to be done.
So last weekend I snapped out of my peanut butter addiction denial and whipped up a batch. Then I ate it. And I put some in that cake. Then I ate the rest. It tastes just like white chocolate wonderful. But it’s even creamier. It’s like silk. Silk in peanut butter form.
Don’t mind me. I’m going to go die now.
Homemade White Chocolate Peanut Butter
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups dry, roasted peanuts (I used salted)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips/chunks/bars, melted
Instructions
- Add peanuts to a food processor and blend until a thick nut butter forms. Stream in oil and vanilla with the processor on, continuing to run it until the mixture is smooth – this took me about 3-4 minutes. You can add more oil if needed, just do it in small increments. Turn off processor, add melted chocolate, and turn processor back on. Blend until smooth.
- I kept mine at room temperature for a week, but I do recommend refrigerating the butter if you want to keep it for a few weeks.

This jar was gone by yesterday. Somebody send me to peanut butter rehab!

Wow, looks addicting and amazing!! My jar-a-week habit probably isn’t very economical either…which means I should make this :)
Peanut Butter rehab is not necessary, this behavior is completely acceptable…. or at least that is what I like to tell myself. This PB looks amazingly smooth and creamy!
Awesome! I’ve never had White Chocolate Wonderful PB but I really want to try it! And since I can’t buy it around here, I’ll just have to make it ;)
This looks delicious! I want to whip up a batch, then make peanut butter hybrids out of everything in my pantry. Dark chocolate peanut butter, yum…
If only this had been posted yesterday! I just made the trek to Whole Foods so I could get my fix of White Chocolate Peanut Butter.. $7 later for a jar. Next time I know what I’m doing!
I’d never heard of white chocolate peanut butter so thanks for introducing me, it sounds awesome!
This recipe makes me want to run out and purchase a big food processor. I only have a little one and don’t think it could handle this project. I just was checking out a few other blogs and Picky Palate has another decadent peanut butter recipe…she blended in smashed Oreos and white chocolate chips…talk about calories!
I know!! It looks unreal. I am dying to buy some oreos and crush them into this, but that also means I need to make another batch of the peanut butter. Dangerous!
Oooh, please tell me you saw Picky Palate’s post the other day: http://picky-palate.com/2011/03/10/cookies-and-cream-peanut-butter-midnight-snack/
Very similar to yours but with Oreos!
And I just saw the comment right above mine…silly me :)
I love White Chocolate Wonderful PB too! Delicious on toast, and great to use in PB pie. Thanks for sharing – will be making some soon!
I have never had the white chocolate PB combo before . . . maybe I should stay away so I don’t have to add it to my list of addictions. Who am I kidding? I already want to bathe in this stuff!
i love white chocolate in PB. THis looks delicious. I made one like this with pretzels in it :)

I have seriously got to start making my own nut butters…and then making them even better with chocolate added in. Brilliant!
I would polish a jar of that off in no time!!!
nut butters are SO expensive– this is brilliant!
This looks yummy! I’d have to hide it from my husband. He’s the PB eater in our house. There will be a full jar and a couple days later I’ll go to make cookies and it’s gone.
omg I like white chocolate more than milk or dark chocolate and I love peanut butter like its my job…..I feel completely beside myself right now!
The white chocolate made it SOOOO creamy!!! I love that little jar too. :)
I cannot believe i’ve never had white chocolate wonder before. I’m much more of a dark bitter chocolate girl so I guess that makes sense.
Looks so creamy! Homemade PB is the bomb.
This does look wonderful. And just when I was getting a little wiggle room in my jeans. (sigh)
I would have eaten the whole jar, too!! I actually did this once, out of pure boredom. We had some leftover melted white chocolate so I stirred it into some peanut butter, it was amazing.
You never cease to amaze me! I’ve got to try making my own pb.
Oh my lord…this is simply a fantastic idea!!! Did you just keep it in a mason jar? or emptied out pb jar?
Wow, making your own peanut butter. You are a genius.
How about Nutella Peanut Butter? eh? eh? sounds delicious!!
Dear Jess,
I recently accused you of trying to get me wifed. This post proves you are innocent. You are CLEARLY trying to fatten me…which will totally throw a wrench in the whole getting wifed thing.
So help me please! Do I have to wait until after I get a ring to start making all your recipes? How did you do it???
Love,
Maybe I’d Rater Be Fat than Married in Houston
oh wow–I NEED a food processor. Stat. This looks amazing!
I cried reading this post. My friends always suggest peanut butter when I’m down, and right now I’m down. This is my one way ticket back to happy land. Haha!
Wow! That peanut butter looks so creamy and so smooth and so chocolatey and so delicious. I’m eating breakfast right now and would definitely love to be able to spread a huge glob of it all over my toast. Yum!!
i’ve never had white chocolate PB but you’ve convinced me now!
peanut butter is definitely in my favorite foods of all time. i just can’t get enough.
I considered giving up visiting your blog for Lent this year. Yea… true story.
Noooooo.
I can’t believe I have never made homemade peanut butter before… odd… I need to get on that like right now.
I used to hate white chocolate but now it’s making a comeback to my palette! What a great way to use it. Can I just say that I too have that sea shell spoon! :)
You’re a genius. White chocolate peanut butter is the best thing ever!
my mouth just started watering. I just bought a blender with a food processor attachment. I will have to break that thing out!
This post is not good for my 8-months pregnant cravings! :)
you are a genious…this loooks so smooth and delicious!!
I haven’t been able to find White Chocolate Wonderful here so LOVE that you posted your own version of it. I can’t wait to make this!
Jessica, I love Trader Joe’s. It is my go-to market. I have never seen that PB cream cheese spread, but I make something like that over here anyway. Loving your creamy white choc PB. Nice! xo

My two favorite foods in the world, omg it looks so unbelievable!
Genius idea!
I never thought that someone else could share my deep love and obsession with peanut butter. My number one comfort food is a jar a peanut butter and a spoon, and it’s something I have put into practice more than a few (hundred) times :). For some reason I have yet to make my own peanut butter, perhaps because it could get very dangerous :). I also have to say that ever since I started reading a few weeks ago, I’ve become a bigger and bigger fan. Thanks for another entertaining post :).
Ohh this peanut butter looks sooo dreamy! I just want to put a huge spoonful of it right into my mouth! Too bad I gave up sugar for lent :(
Wow that looks AMAZING! I want to dunk my head in that white chocolate peanut butter. :)
Wow…this was a very dangerous thing that you just posted!! I’m wondering how I could make this without a food processor…
Blender maybe?
That would definitely save me some money!!! I go through that stuff like crazy!! It is insanely good in Source Vanilla yogurt, believe it or not.
God that sounds so good! I made some Honey Roasted Cashew Butter a few weeks ago. I made it into a Cashew Butter Valrhona Chcolate Ice Cream. I want to try this with other nuts and use it in a mousse or cheesecake.
This sounds absolutely delightfully delicious! I’m running low on my favorite peanut butter, but with plenty of peanuts in the cupboard I may have to try this out this weekend.
Love this idea! I’ve been making the same old peanut butter with milk chocolate combination – boring. I need to try some of this.
