I make a number of different pies & always appreciate a new way (such as this one) to put together the crust! Actually made this for a peanut-butter-pie-loving friend & presented it to him minus one large slice, you know, for taste-testing! Followed your recipe right on down & found it absolutely delicious, as did my friend! Thanks for the great keeper recipe! [Made & reviewed in Healthy Choices ABC recipe tag]

I use this same recipe and it is also known as Amish Peanut Butter Pie. I take it to Thanksgiving with my husband's family and it's a big hit. The only difference is I use a store bought graham cracker crust.

Still a little sweet for me. But I imagin that if I make it with chocolate or banana pudding it would be a five with me.
