\"peanutbutterpiey\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I\u2019m not usually a big dessert person, but recently, I had the desire to make a good peanut butter pie.
\nThere are a number of good recipes out there for a regular peanut butter pie, but I wanted to try something different and combine this with chocolate fudge pudding. If you think the idea sounds delicious, you will not be disappointed.
\nI used sugar- and fat-free pudding to try to cut down on the calories a bit. You can also use low-fat cream cheese.
\nNatural peanut butter isn\u2019t loaded with sugar, so it\u2019s a better option than regular creamy peanut butter. This is definitely a delicious and easy-to-make recipe.
\nGive it a try and share with family and friends. Enjoy!<\/p>\n

Peanut Butter\/Chocolate fudge pie<\/strong>
\nPrep Time: 20 minutes
\nReady in: 2 hrs 20 minutes
\nServings: 8<\/p>\n

Ingredients:
\n1.4 oz. package of Chocolate Fudge pudding (sugar free\/fat free)
\n1-9\u201d chocolate graham cracker pie crust
\n8 oz. package cream cheese at room temperature
\n\u00bd cup creamy natural peanut butter (3\/4 cup if you want more peanut butter taste)
\n\u00bd cup confectioners\u2019 sugar
\n16 oz. container of extra whipped topping (thawed)
\n12-15 pcs of unwrapped miniature peanut butter cups
\n2 tbs shavings from a Hershey\u2019s chocolate bar<\/p>\n

Directions:
\n1. Prepare the chocolate fudge pudding per package instructions (divide in half) Use one half and spoon this mixture into the 9\u201d pie crust, spread evenly. (You only use half the pudding mix in this recipe, so you can eat and enjoy the remaining pudding separately.)
\n2. Combine the cream cheese, peanut butter and confectioners\u2019 sugar in a bowl. With a hand mixer, mix these ingredients until smooth and well blended. Fold in \u00bd of the whipped topping. Spoon this mixture into the 9\u201d pie crust on top of the chocolate fudge pudding. Spread evenly.
\n3. Place the remaining whipped topping on top of the peanut butter mixture (optional) and then garnish with the peanut butter cups and chocolate shavings.
\n4. Refrigerate for 2 hours or overnight before serving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
