It seems like chocolate and peanut butter just seem to go together. This is a cool no-cook pie. Rim the top with shelled peanuts for a beautiful presentation. You're family and guests will be delightfully surprised at how wonderfully the flavors meld together. I cut portions a little smaller because this pie is rich and your guests will want a second helping! Occasionally I will put a dollop of whipped cream on the portions when serving....YUMMY!! My friend Ellie found this in a desert cookbook, and sent it to me 8 yrs ago. I have made it twice and have to say it is delicious!
