directions

  • Crust: Finely chop peanuts (Food processor works best).
  • Mix butter with nuts.
  • Press mixture into pie pan until it covers entire pan and put in freezer until filling is ready.
  • Filling: Mix together ice cream, karo syrup and peanut butter.
  • I found that a Kitchen Aid Mixer or Food Processor works best to mix.
  • Once mixture is blended together add in peanuts and coconut.
  • Scoop mixture into pie crust.
  • It will be fairly soft and should smooth out evenly pretty easily.
  • Freeze until ready to serve.
  • I usually make this a few hours before serving, so it has a chance to freeze again (It makes serving much easier if the pie is froze).

  1. I loved this pie! The texture of the coconut and peanuts makes it a lot more interesting! I really liked the crust of peanuts and think I'll try it for a choc cream pie. Thanks for sharing.
     
  2. Easy to make and delicious. I topped it off by sprinkling it with Reese's Pieces and the kids went crazy!
     
  3. This was very good. I love the fact that it is "peanut butter ice cream" It sounds wierd, but after you eat it there is no arguing! It was fast to make, and was sweet, but not too sweet. I tried it with the reese's peices like another reviewer said, but i think you should put them on before you serve your pie, because my candy turned out hard and crunchy.
     
  4. Ok, it does not get any easier than this pie! I used a store bought graham cracker crust and had it made in less than ten min....love it!
     
  5. I originally saw this recipe in the 1999 Taste of Home cookbook...It was a good fit as I generally like anything made with peanut butter...The only thing missing from this version here, is the 2 tablespoons sugar that's mixed with the peanuts and butter to make the crust ;-)

  1. This is one of our favorite desserts that I've used for a couple years. My husband loves it! If I'm really pressed for time, I sometimes buy an oreo cookie pie crust instead of making it. I've also used cookies and cream ice cream instead of vanilla, and it was awesome. I like a little chocolate in there. It's a very versatile dessert and it super easy to put together.
     

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am a working mom of a beautiful little girl Keira Lynn. Watching her grow has been such a joy! My husband and I were married in May of 2006 on the beautiful island of Kauai. Since discovering this site, I have been cooking much more and have found some incredible recipes. I absolutely love to cook and try out new recipes, but have a handful of family favorites that I make quite often. My husband loves to cook as much as I do. To avoid anyone monopolizing the kitchen, we have to designate who gets to cook dinner in advance. He specializes in Asian cuisine and I love trying new healthy recipes. <a href="http://www.snugglepie.com"><img border="0" src="http://www.snugglepie.com/ezb/718035.png"></a>
