Reese's Peanut Butter Pie....

Oh, so Yumo!

Peanut Butter and chocolate! What is not to love?!

Okay, I know Mom and Dad don't eat chocolate and for a time while we were young, they hoped (I think) that we as children would choose to follow in these same foot steps.

But I am weak and definately don't have the strength to do the same.....so I enjoy chocolate at times. And this dessert is definately worth enjoying....

My kids loved this pie! Any time I had just ONE little bite....they wanted ONE little bite too!

Crust:

1 store bought oreo crust

Filling:

1 pkg (8 oz) Cream cheese, softened (I use 1/3 less fat and it works great)

1 cup creamy peanutbutter

3/4 cup sugar

1 Tbsp. vanilla

1 tub (8 oz.) Cool Whip thawed

1/2 milk chocolate candy bar shredded

10 mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped

Directions:

Mix cream cheese, peanut butter, sugar and vanilla with mixer until well blended. Carefully mix in Cool Whip little bit at a time. Then stir in shredded milk chocolate shavings. Pour into pie crust.

Top with chopped Reese's Cups and drizzle with Chocolate Fudge Sauce.

Freeze for 4 hours or overnight until firm. Let stand 1/2 hour before serving so pie can be cut easily. Then keep in fridge till you can't resist having more!
