No Bake Peanut Butter Cup Pie – this easy no bake peanut butter cheesecake is full of peanut butter cups with a NUTTER BUTTER pie crust!
This pie is special. It’s spectacular, yes, but it’s also special. Why? Because it’s Crazy for Crust’s 6th Birthday Pie!!
That’s right, today is this blog’s 6th birthday. 6 years ago I sat down and wrote my first post. It was a crust, and the photos and writing were horrible. Oh how far I’ve come.
Seriously though, the last six years have been pretty amazing. I went from not knowing what a blog was to having one that’s pretty successful. I went from never being able to bake without a recipe to creating my own recipes on a daily basis. And, most importantly, I went from an unhappy, stuck-in-a-rut, frustrated stay-at-home mom with nothing that was hers to a business owner.
That’s pretty darn special, if you ask me. To celebrate, the occasion needed a special recipe. This pie fits that requirement: it’s a No Bake Peanut Butter Cup Pie that’s no-bake peanut butter cheesecake filled with peanut butter cups all encased in a peanut butter cookie crust and topped with hot fudge and more peanut butter cups.
Drooling…
Back when I asked Mel to name his favorite pie of all time, this is what he told me. Remember last week, I said the requirement was a peanut butter cookie crust. Well, he also requested that it be peanut butter and filled with peanut butter cups. I did what he asked, and guess what? As a birthday present to Crazy for Crust, he ate TWO bites, allowing me to give this pie the Mel ate it tag.
This pie is really the epitome of this blog: it’s easy, it’s got a crust, and it’s damn good.
Feel free to use an Oreo or Graham Cracker crust instead of the peanut butter cookie crust – any of the three would be fabulous. But if you’re a peanut butter lover like we are, well, there’s no contest.
Okay, and now it’s time to get all mushy about the fact I’ve been doing this for 6 years.
