fudge brownie peanut butter pie
My mom and I were eating a peanut butter pie one Thanksgiving that someone brought over for dessert. We both agreed that the filling was great but thought the graham crust was kind of boring. So, I decided to experiment and came up with this recipe that I served that Christmas. My mom, along with the rest of my family loved it and it is now requested by someone every holiday.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Adding brownies to the crust of this pie is a real game-changer. It gives this peanut butter pie a very decadent flavor. The cream cheese peanut butter filling is light, sweet, and tangy. It does taste like a Reese's Cup! Super easy to make, your family will request this dessert often.

How To Make fudge brownie peanut butter pie
-
Step 1Mix brownie mix according to directions on the box. Spread 1/2 cup of the mix into one thawed pie crust (you can always make brownies with the rest).
-
Step 2Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes or until crust is golden brown and brownie is set.
-
Step 3While cooling, mix the cream cheese (mixes best if cheese softened to room temp) with the powdered sugar. Mix until creamy.
-
Step 4Then mix in the peanut butter until well blended. Mix in 1/2 of the tub of whipped topping until well blended.
-
Step 5Spread the mixture into the crust when it is completely cooled. Spread the remaining whipped topping over the filling and if you wish you can top it with miniature peanut butter cups.
