Peanut Butter Cup Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese and 1/2 cup peanut butter in medium bowl until blended. Add milk and dry pudding mix; beat 2 min. Whisk in 1 cup COOL WHIP; spoon into crust. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Meanwhile, microwave remaining COOL WHIP and chocolate in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 1-1/2 to 2 min. or until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended, stirring after each minute. Cool completely.
• Spread chocolate mixture over pudding layer in crust. Microwave remaining peanut butter in small microwaveable bowl 30 sec.; stir. Drizzle over pie. Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm.

Steps:

• Combine vanilla pudding mix with 2 cups milk; prepare according to package directions. As pudding heats up, add peanut butter. Stir constantly until peanut butter is melted and mixture is smooth and thickened. Pour mixture into pie crust.
• Mix chocolate pudding mix and 2 cups milk according to package directions. Allow to set up 5 minutes, then pour over peanut butter pudding layer. Chill several hours before serving. Garnish with whipped topping if desired.

Steps:

• For the crust: Mix together the flour, granulated sugar and salt in a large bowl until well combined. Using clean hands, add the butter and toss until just coated. Work the butter into the flour until the mixture is in clumps the size of quarters, about 2 minutes. The butter clumps should go from small chunks to larger chunks. Add the shortening, toss until just coated in flour, then rub it into the flour mixture until the mixture forms pea-size pieces (some big chunks should remain) and comes together in fist-sized clumps when squeezed, about 1 minute. Drizzle in half the ice water and rake through the mixture with your fingers until just moistened. Drizzle in the remaining water 1 tablespoon at a time and comb through the mixture with our fingers to moisten. The mixture will eventually come together; the dough is moist enough when it is moistened through but is not wet when pressed. (Do not overwork the dough or it will become tough.)
• While rotating the bowl with one hand, use the palm of your other hand to push the dough along the side of the bowl to gather it into a ball. Turn the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap, press it into a flat disk and close in the wrap. Place in the coldest part of the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Roll out the dough and form a crust. Press it into a 9- or 10-inch pie pan and bake until golden brown, 10 minutes. Remove and let cool.
• For the peanut butter crumble: Mix the peanut butter and confectioners' sugar with a spoon or stand mixer over low speed until it is a crumble consistency. Set aside.
• For the whipped cream: Add the confectioners' sugar to the cream and whip at high speed with a stand mixer until fluffy.
• For the pudding: Whisk together the milk, granulated sugar and 2 eggs in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Mix the 3 egg yolks with the vanilla, salt and cornstarch in a small bowl. Slowly stir the egg yolk mixture into the milk mixture until it firms up. Stir in the butter until combined. Remove from the heat and set aside. If everything else is done, place the mixture in the refrigerator for a few minutes to cool.
• To assemble the pie: Layer about one-third of the peanut butter crumble in the bottom of the pie crust, followed by half of the cooled pudding, and half of the whipped cream. Repeat this process again and top with the crumble. Keep the pie in the refrigerator until ready to serve.

Steps:

• Heat the milk in a small pot over low heat until warm. Remove from the heat and stir in the chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Set aside to cool slightly; mixture should be thick but have a pourable consistency.
• In a large bowl using an electric mixer on high, beat together the cream cheese with the peanut butter and powdered sugar. In a separate bowl, beat together the heavy cream with the vanilla until doubled in volume and soft peaks form.
• Stir one-third of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to lighten it. Fold in the remaining whipped cream until combined.
• Spread into the graham cracker crust. Pour the melted chocolate over the top of the pie and sprinkle with the chopped peanuts. Place the pie in the freezer to set up, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Fold in 1 cup chopped peanut butter cups. Fold in whipped topping. Spoon into crust. Cover and freeze for 6 hours or overnight., Remove from the freezer 15-20 minutes before serving. Garnish with the remaining peanut butter cups.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350.
• Press cookie dough into a greased 9" pie pan to make a crust.
• Bake 30-40 minutes, until golden. Allow to cool.
• Mix peanut butter, water, 2 Tbsp melted butter, vanilla, and one cup powdered sugar until smooth, using an electric mixer.
• Stir in additional 2 cups of powdered sugar. Mixture will be crumbly.
• Press the peanut butter mixture into the crust.
• Melt 1/2 cup butter in microwave until about 1/2 melted, then add chocolate chips and microwave until almost melted. Stir until smooth. (Don't burn the chocolate!).
• Pour chocolate mixture over peanut butter mixture, spreading to edges.
• Chill 3 hours.
• Cuts better if warmed to room temperature.

Steps:

• Combine peanut butter, powdered sugar, and cream cheese. Beat until smooth.
• Fold in Cool Whip.
