Peanut Butter Pie with Nutter Butter Crust


 If you love peanut butter - this pie is for you. I seem to be making tons of pies this holiday
 season. This one is one of my favorites it's very rich and delightful. The pie crust is really
 the winner here. I hope you try this for your family and enjoy. You won't regret it.

                                                    Peanut Butter Pie with Nutter Butter Crust

                                                    1 ( 8 ounce ) package cream cheese
                                                    1 cup creamy peanut butter
                                                    1 cup powdered sugar
                                                    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
                                                    1 ( 8 ounce ) container cool whip, thawed

                                                    For the crust

                                                    25 nutter butters, crushed
                                                    4 tablespoons butter

                 1) Mix the crushed nutter butters and butter until combined. Place in a pie plate
                 and bake ay 350 degrees for about 5 to 6 minutes, let cool.

                 2) Beat butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla
                 beat until smooth. Add cool whip and stir until fully combined. Place the filling
                 into cooled pie crust. Chill one hour before serving. Serve with additional
                 whipped cream.

                 Note - sometimes I put melted nutella on the pie crust and then add the filling
                 on top. Totally optional =)

Last night I was showing my husband your recipe and said I may make this, well he started looking at your blog and recipes and he said this gal has some beautiful recipes and photos,he said it looked like a food and wine magazine.
