first peanut butter pie
(2 RATINGS)
This is the first recipe I ever tried for peanut butter pie, I have never needed to try another. Made from scratch, easy, and well worth the little 20 minute prep time.I use my food processor to crush the cookies as they should be finely crushed. My daughter's favorite pie. Sometimes I pour a jar of fudge ice cream topping on top of the Oreo crust, reserving enough to drizzle on top of pie with caramel topping and crushed peanuts. No cooking. I chill in refrigerator overnight before serving.Very rich and delicious.
