Easy Frozen Peanut Butter Chocolate Pie (Lower-Fat)

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"This tastes like a cold peanut butter cup and takes only minutes to make, not only is this a lower fat recipe it is extremely delicious, of coarse you can go the full-fat route but this tastes just as good! Magic shell is found near the ice cream cones in your grocery store, it hardens when drizzled on top of ice cream or anything completely frozen, make certain to purchase the ready-made 4-ounce containers of chocolate pudding for this. Cooking time is freezing time."

 

• Ready In: 14mins
• Ingredients: 5

ingredients

• 1 (9 inch) prepared chocolate crumb crusts (or use a graham cracker crust, the chocolate is better!)

5. When to pie is frozen drizzle the Magic Shell over the top and return to freezer until ready to serve.
6. Thaw slightly before serving to allow easier slicing.
7. Place any leftover pie in the freezer (don't worry you won't have any leftover!).

Do you prepare the pudding or use it dry?

Made this last night, sooooooo good. And Easy. Mom-in-law was over for dinner, she loved it !!! So brownie points for me (I need all the help I can get)!!!!! No chocolate crust at the store, so I had to settle for the shortbread flavor. Can't wait to try it out with the choc.crust !!!<br/>Thank You Kitten, and have a great day.

So very, very good! I doubled a recipe for homemade pudding from my Betty Crocker Cookbook using splenda as my sweetener. I also used a graham cracker crust prepared with one egg white to make it very low fat. After these adjustments, I followed the recipe as is, omitting the chocolate hard shell. My husband absolutely loved this!! Thanks for posting.
