My mom was a southern woman and wow she could cook. She would make fresh bake cakes and pies all from scratch. Yup none of that box stuff she was from the old school. One of her favorites was cocoanut pie the hole family would fight over them, I remember when we would have family get together or we found out she was baking every one would try to be the first to get those pies. But one Pie mom never made it was a Reese's peanut butter pie, I think those pies came latter and if she knew about them I know they would have been great. Most people have never heard of this pie when I mention it during a conversation about cooking for the holidays or a birthday. This pie is a real crowd pleaser and it can be done with reduced fat ingredients. This recipe is a great one, but if you know what Nutter Butter cookies are, you'll want to try the crust with this recipe. I have also added a layer of dessert fudge to the bottom of the pie and it went over very well. Very yummy pie, but the way to make it totally irresistible is to make a Nutter Butter crust. Substitute splendor sweetener for the granulated sugar, substitute a low sugar graham cracker crust or make your own no sugar chocolate cookie crust like I did using store bought chocolate cookies crumbs with melted butter and pressed into a pie plate. The whipped topping from the store is already low sugar and then top with pieces of sugar free Reese's Peanut Butter cups and drizzled with sugar-free chocolate sauce my family and friends never knew when I served it up that it was low sugar until I told them. Also you can chop up peanut butter cups and fold them into the pie mixture. I used Whey Low powdered sugar, low fat natural peanut butter, skim milk, and Neuchtel cheese. I love peanut butter pie with graham cracker crust and fudge layer. This peanut butter pie has a graham cracker crust, a thin layer of fudge, and a cream cheese - peanut butter filling. Beat lightly for a few minutes, pour into bottom of pie crust. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with peanut butter, powdered sugar and milk. At you annual church dinner this will be the first to go, it's that good. Once you sink your teeth into one of these pies you will keep coming back. This is such a good combination of a big cookies and peanut butter. Directions in a large bowl, mix cream cheese, peanut butter and powdered sugar until creamy. Fold in whipped topping Pour into prepared pie crusts. Garnish this pie with chocolate curls, chopped nuts or chocolate syrup and enjoy - it's a creamy and flavorful dessert or snack. You can have the cookie wrapped around the peanut butter cup it's perfect. There are many different toppings you can use, peanut butter, chocolate chunk, Macadamia Nut Cookies. Top it any way you like, but mini chocolate chips seem to go so well with the peanut butter. For more recipes and great gifts continue to shop at http:// www.Teegoes.com
