Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Proverbs 31:30

Peanut Butter Pie

Posted in Recipes
My Dear Auntie bought a peanut butter pie the other day.  Needless to say, we were quite disappointed.  I really hate to waste fat grams on a disappointment, but that is what we did.  Yesterday was the kind of day that called for a really good dessert, so I pulled together MY recipe for a peanut butter pie.  This is where I started for my recipe, but of course, changed it!!  Not a lot, but where it counts:

My Peanut Butter Pie Recipe*
8 ounces Cream Cheese, softened
1 cup Powdered Sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter (very important, note the bold)
16 ounces Cool Whip
1 pre-made graham cracker pie crust (you make it or the store does...)
Spray whipped topping
Chocolate or fudge syrup


Mix cream cheese, powdered sugar, peanut butter and cool whip.  Pour into a graham cracker crust and spread it out evenly.  Top with spray whipped topping and drizzled syrup.  You can eat it immediately, but it is MUCH better after sitting in the fridge for about 1 hour.

*Disclaimer:  I never said this is full of only whole foods (so some of you need to pull your jaws off the floor).  Eat at your own risk and enjoy it.  If you focus most of your eating on whole foods, you can throw in contraband once in a while...

Love your disclaimer! I once took a yummy dessert to our Bible study and everyone was certain it was a "healthy" dessert because I made it. I very blntly told them it's dessert, it isn't supposed to be healthy and anyone who tells you otherwise, is lying or trying to sell you something, lol!

I make this pie and it's the same recipe with one cup of the good stuff. (We go through huge tubs of pb around here cause there's just something about pb and boys/men.) This pie is my daddy's favorite...which reminds me I'll have to make one for him when he gets home from the Philippines. He had his birthday over there. Thanks for the reminder! Miss you.

Yummy! I love peanut butter pie. I don't think my recipe uses powdered sugar though. I'll have to check. I even make mine with natural peanut butter and it turns out great.

I gave you an award on my blog. http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/kristenph/652392/
