Blue Ribbon Recipe
Our taste buds fell in love with this delicious no-bake peanut butter pie. Each layer has a distinct flavor and pairs amazingly with each other. Using Nutter Butter cookies for a crust is genius. They add a nice crunchiness to the pie. The crust is followed by a layer of chocolate pudding, then a creamy peanut butter filling, and topped off with a chocolate mousse-like topping. A heavenly slice of pie!
