Peanut Butter Pie Recipe

peanut butter pie

This chocolate peanut butter pie is one of my all-time favorite easy dessert recipes.

Actually even if it wasn’t easy the pie would be at the top of my list of favorite treats.

There is just something about the combination of chocolate and peanut butter in this recipe that I adore.

With the addition of cream cheese, peanut butter and chocolate, the three ingredients together are unbeatable.

The creaminess of this peanut butter pie is the first thing I noticed. It is nice and creamy, with just enough of that wonderful peanut flavor.

Then add the chocolate on top and oh my, what an amazing dessert recipe this is.

This is a no bake dessert that is perfect for entertaining all year round. It makes a great special chocolate dessert recipe any day of the week too.

Watching your calories? No problem. You can easily turn this recipe into a low fat pie with a few simple adjustments. Just follow the notes in the Tips and Variations section below.

I personally would use the regular ingredients and just enjoy the pie. Choose your preference though.

I hope you enjoy this amazing and easy peanut butter pie.
