Deliciously simple Frozen Peanut Butter Pie, the perfect icebox treat for a hot summer filled with rich peanut butter and whipped cream flavor and chopped peanut butter cups.
I’ve got a Frozen Peanut Butter Pie that tastes like frozen peanut butter cups on BHG’s Delish Dish today. Just think about that for a second, a frozen peanut butter cup? Doesn’t that sound magnificent? It definitely did to me.
This pie seriously could not be easier to make. I think I spent more time showering than I did making this pie. A few quick steps of melting peanut butter and sugar together then combining with fresh whipped cream is all you have to do before pouring the mixture into a pre-prepared chocolate cookie pie crust. Freeze and eat!
That’s all there is to this. I added an easy ganache made with chocolate chips and heavy cream and drizzled it on top. I ate this frozen peanut butter pie in silence savoring every single bite. I think it is the most fitting way to eat it. I hope you agree.
Deliciously simple Frozen Peanut Butter Pie, the perfect icebox treat for a hot summer filled with rich peanut butter and whipped cream flavor and chopped peanut butter cups.
- 2 1/4 cups whipping cream
- 1 1/4 cups creamy or chunky peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup about 15 bite-size chocolate-covered peanut butter cups, chopped
- 1 purchased chocolate cookie crumb pie shell
- 6 chocolate-covered peanut butter cups halved
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2-3 tablespoons heavy cream
- In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup of the cream, the peanut butter, and 1/4 cup of the powdered sugar.
- Cook and stir over medium heat until smooth. Cool to room temperature.
Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine the remaining 2 cups cream and the remaining 3/4 cup powdered sugar. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form (tips stand straight).
- Fold peanut butter mixture into whipped cream. Fold in the chopped peanut butter cups. Spoon mixture into pie shell. Top with the halved peanut butter cups. Freeze about 3 hours or until nearly firm. Makes 12 servings.

June 16, 2015 at 11:15 pmMy friend used to make peanut butter pie when I lived in LA. Long story short, I moved to the Bay Area and she moved back to Texas so no more peanut butter pie for me. And you read my mind and share the recipe. And that makes me love you even more 🙂 Checking BHG for some delicious pie….
