This is quick and easy and a good marriage of chocolate and peanut butter. The kids will go for it as well. For a variation, in place of pudding prepare with chocolate ice cream. It is also very good. Happy cooking, Gary

Chocolate Pie With Peanut Butter Crust ready to slice.

Blue Ribbon Recipe

One bite of this chocolate pie with a peanut butter crust and you'll think you're eating one of those famous Girl Scout cookies. It's a super easy recipe that's perfect for kids to jump in on and lend a hand. Even though the Rice Krispies are crushed in the prep, you still get their crunch in each bite. Slices of the pie aren't the easiest to cut or the prettiest, but they're quite tasty.

How To Make chocolate pie with peanut butter crust

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a large bowl mash Rice Krispies to medium fine. Then add peanut butter. Mix and incorporate well.

Step 2

Press and line a pie plate with the mixture. Bake the crust for 30 minutes to firm up the crust. Then let the crust cool.
Step 3

Mix chocolate pudding per directions. Use just 2/3 of the recommended milk for a firmer pie. Place in refrigerator to firm and chill.
Step 4

When the crust has cooled, add the cooled pudding mixture. Chill in the refrigerator until time to serve.
Step 5

When serving, add whipped topping and shaved chocolate if you choose.
