Peanut Butter Cup Chocolate Pie Recipe
This easy recipe for Peanut Butter Cup Chocolate Pie is so good you may eat the whole thing or your kids may! No shame from me if this happens. I was only able to get one slice before my boys indulged and ate the whole thing. This is why we have to be careful when we make peanut butter desserts! EVERYONE overeats!
I followed the recipe for Copycat Pioneer Woman Chocolate Pie for the base layer. Next, I added Cool Whip and spread all over the top, then finished by adding cut up Reese Cup miniatures. My kids were in love! I asked them if they wanted me to add this recipe to our favorites and I got a thumbs up from everyone, including the hubby!
This is a great recipe for a party, potluck or baby shower. You can serve it with chocolate syrup dripped on top too! Be sure to try Peanut Butter Cup Chocolate Pie recipe, you will not be disappointed!
