Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a deep 9 by 2-inch pie plate.
• Drizzle the crushed vanilla wafers with the melted butter and stir until blended. Press on the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate. Pop in the oven and bake until lightly browned, 20 to 25 minutes. Cool on a wire rack for about 30 minutes.
• Toss the banana slices with the orange juice, making sure all the slices get coated. (This helps keep the bananas from browning.) Place the slices on a paper towel-lined plate and pat any excess juices dry.
• Arrange half the banana slices in a single layer over the cooled crust. Cover completely with the Chocolate Pudding, spreading it with an offset spatula or butter knife. Top with the rest of the bananas. Sprinkle the peanut brittle crumbs over the bananas. Place dollops of the Peanut Butter Cream on top, spreading it out evenly. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours.
• Whip the cream until stiff peaks are just about to form. Whip in the almond extract and sugar until stiff peaks form.
• Take the pie out of the refrigerator. Place dollops of the whipped cream on top and spread it out evenly. Scatter pieces of peanut brittle on top and serve.
• Whisk the sugar, cocoa powder and flour in a bowl until there are no lumps. Crack the eggs into the bowl, add the yolks and whisk into a paste. Slowly whisk in 1 cup milk until it is fully incorporated, and then whisk in the remaining 1 cup milk. Put the milk mixture into a saucepan and put over medium heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until it starts to look like pudding, 10 to 15 minutes. It will begin to bubble and it will hold soft peaks when you lift the whisk out. Take off the heat and cool to room temperature.
• Beat the cream cheese and confectioners'sugar with an electric mixer until completely smooth. Add the vanilla and peanut butter, beating until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Working in batches, taking care not to deflate the whipped cream, fold a large spoonful of whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Fold in the remaining cream in 2 additions.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together peanut butter, cream cheese and sugar. Then stir whipped topping into peanut butter mixture. Whisk until smooth and no lumps remain.
• Pour filling into pie crust and refrigerate for about 3 hours until pie is firm.

Steps:

• Spoon 1/2 cup of the fudge topping into bottom of crust.
• Place in freezer 10 minutes.
• Whisk peanut butter and milk in a large bowl until well blended.
• Add pudding mixes.
• Beat for 2 minutes or until smooth.
• Stir in 1/2 cup of the whipped topping.
• Gently spoon over chocolate layer.
• Top with remaining whipped topping.
• Refrigerate 3 hours or until set.
• Drizzle with remaining 1/4 cup fudge topping.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Crush the cookies until they're fine crumbs. Pour the melted butter over the top and stir with a fork to combine. Press into a pie pan and bake until set, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
• For the filling: Beat the peanut butter with the cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Add in the thawed whipped topping and beat until smooth, scraping the sides as needed.
• Pour the filling into the crust, evening out the top with a knife or spatula. Chill for at least an hour before serving.

Steps:

• In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine butter and peanut butter. Heat in the microwave until soft; mix well. Gradually stir in confectioners' sugar until the mixture resembles a soft dough. Spread mixture into 2 pie crusts.
• In a small bowl, mix the milk with the instant pudding. Pour over the peanut butter mixture in each crust. Chill until firm.
• Top pies with whipped topping when ready to serve.

Steps:

• Crust:.
• Preheat oven to 350°F and place rack in center of oven.
• Combine cracker crumbs, brown sugar and melted butter in a deep 10-inch pie pan (or two shallow 9-inch pie pans).
• Press evenly into pan and bake for 10-15 minutes.
• Chill Crust.
• Ganache:.
• Bring 3/4 cup heavy cream to boil in small pan over medium-high heat, or microwave for 2-3 minutes, and pour over chocolate chips.
• Whisk together until smooth.
• Pour 1/2 of the chocolate mixture into cooked and cooled pie shell(s) and spread evenly over bottom. (Save the rest for the garnish).
• Refrigerate.
• Filling:.
• In a large mixing bowl, with an electric mixer set on high, whip cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
• Add milk, peanut butter, and vanilla.
• Beat until well mixed.
• In a separate bowl, whip chilled cream until stiff and fold into peanut butter mixture.
• Spoon gently into chilled crust; using a spatula to smooth surface of pie.
• Refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
• Garnish with chocolate shavings, crushed peanuts, whipped cream or drizzle ganache over top.
• Serve at once.
• (Rumored to be even better the second day--like there is ever any left over!).
