We think cream pies are absolutely irresistible, and we have yet to meet one that we didn’t like. Banana cream, Boston cream, key lime, chocolate cream pie, cut a big slice, grab a fork and dive right in! If you like cream pies, you’ll love this one. This Peanut Butter Cream Pie is nutty, sweet, and decadently creamy, perfect for just about any occasion or no occasion at all!
The combination of salty and sweet is really a match made in dessert heaven. We like to keep this simple by using a store-bought graham cracker pie crust, or better yet a chocolate pie crust because we all know how well chocolate and peanut butter work together. This pie will be a winner at any shindig – you might want to make two if you’re looking to share!
