This dessert is super simple to put together. I made only a few changes. I used fat free cool whip in place of the whipping cream and since I was feeling lazy and didn't want to bother melting chocolate I swirled in a few tablespoons of hot fudge sauce.
This was a big hit! Everyone loved it. It's the perfect mix of creamy and crunchy, with just the right amount of peanut butter and hints of chocolate. I think I'll make sure to always have the ingredients on hand for this one!

Looks wonderful!! I love the marble!
Wow, that sure looks and sounds GREAT!
I am actually making this right now for a baby shower tomorrow. I am just curious. Do the eggs not get cooked? Just wondring if I missed a step or if its all good to have them not cooked. (I'm new to cooking so dont mind me if its a lame question) Thanks

No, the eggs don't get cooked. It's similar to the way you would make ice cream (many ice cream recipes used uncooked eggs as well).
The leftovers did not last very long! This was awesome!
