  1. WOW~this was so good. I made it for my BF this weekend and he loved it. The only thing I did different was used reduced fat cream cheese. It still tasted great. I also chopped up a reeses pieces peanut butter cookie I found at the store and sprinkled it on top. This was delicious--thanks for sharing :)
     
  2. This is the same recipe I use with a slight exception--mine makes 2 9 inch pies! There is no way I could squeeze all of it in one 9 inch pan (it makes an overflowing 10 inch pie with no room for topping!). The only difference I can imagine is that I use the electric mixer with each addition (except the topping which I fold in) and that whips in enough air to create a second pie. I also put a thin layer of Hershey's syrup on the crust before filling it to give a little taste of chocolate! I put an additional 4 oz of whipped topping on each filled pie, drizzle with Hershy's syrup and decorate with peanut butter cups cut in pieces.
     
  3. Made several times, always gets good reviews from others. I use heavy whipping cream to make homemade whipped cream instead of chemical filled cool whip, worth the extra 5 minutes of work (well, the kitchen aid does it for me :)
     
  4. Best peanut butter pie ever! Bought a pre-made graham cracker crust which made this even easier. Make it, you'll love it!
     
  5. This pie is so delicious, I only use 1/4 cup of milk so it holds up without freezing. I top it with whipped cream and drizzle chocolate and chopped nuts. Very pretty

  1. Piped some whipped topping on the pie at the end for looks and sprinkled with chopped peanuts.

  3. mmm delicious! i gave up peanut butter for lent and so i made this for easter to celebrate that i can finally eat peanut butter again! everyone loved it, even the kids. i think this is the only time we've not needed to make a separate dessert for the kids! i slightly changed the recipe- i made an oreo crust (crushed oreos plus melted butter) and used heavy whipping cream instead of cool whip. i also topped the pie with the leftover whipped cream. (really decadent i know) great recipe! i cant wait to eat soem more of the leftovers tonight!
