Some desserts get away with a light sweetness and an accent of fruit. Others are so rich and so sweet that that you might say they’re passionate about it. See example: Peanut Butter Passion Bars. These are a dessert bar that’s all about indulgence – just imagine layers of crunch, smooth and creamy peanut butter,and sweet melty chocolate.
