There are days when I’m craving a dessert, but I truly don’t have the time to spend hours in the kitchen. That’s when I like to get creative and whip up something simple with the ingredients I have available. Well, today’s recipe is one of those creations. It’s a pie that includes SNICKERS Peanut Butter Squares for the ultimate peanut butter and chocolate dessert. The best part is that it’s easy to make.

This Peanut Butter Pie is not overly sweet and will satisfy even the pickiest eaters. Even my husband who doesn’t share my love for chocolate raved about how amazing it was. This pie recipe is also no bake and no fuss. In fact, I made it while my toddler napped and she doesn’t nap very long. There’s nothing better than sitting with a piece of pie uninterrupted. Pure bliss.

Creamy Peanut Butter Pie

Ingredients

Crust:
25 chocolate cookie sandwiches
4 tablespoons of butter
Pie:
8 ounces of cream cheese
1 1/4 cups of creamy peanut butter
1 cup of powdered sugar
1 cup of heavy whipping cream
8 fun size SNICKERS Peanut Butter Squares
Whipped cream:
1 cup of heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons of sugar

Directions

cookie-crust

Place cookies in a food processor and blend until you are left with cookie crumbs. Add melted butter to the cookie crumbs and mix well. Press mixture into a pie pan (I used a 9 inch) evenly. Place it in the freezer to help it set.

Place cream cheese and peanut butter in a bowl and blend well with a mixer. Add powdered sugar and heavy whipping cream, mix on high speed until smooth.

snickers-peanut-butter

Chop the peanut butter squares into small pieces. Take approximately 2/3 of the pieces and add to pie mixture, mix well. Set aside the other 1/3 for topping.

whipped-cream

Pour pie mixture into the pie pan and smooth out with a spatula until even. Next, make whipped cream by whisking heavy whipping cream and sugar together until peaks form. This took me a bit, but the secret is to whisk it good for a few minutes plus use a bowl and whisk that is cold (place in the refrigerator for several minutes).

Pour the whipped cream over the pie. Garnish with the remainder of the SNICKERS pieces. I also drizzled some fudge and melted peanut butter.

This pie is perfect to take to family gatherings or as a special family treat. But the SNICKERS are perfect for the days and nights you need a little boost. With the busy weeks I’ve been facing lately, they truly have come in handy. This busy mama needs her chocolate. 🙂
