I love easy desserts... don't you?
Frozen Peanut Butter Pie... let's see... chocolate graham crackers... peanut butter... chocolate... um... peanut butter... where can you go wrong?
Ingredients
1 2/3 cups
chocolate graham cracker crumbs (about 8 1/2 cookie sheets)
7 tablespoons
sugar, divided
2 large egg whites, lightly beaten
Cooking spray
1 1/4 cups
fat-free milk
2/3 cup
reduced-fat crunchy peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon
vanilla
1/2 cup
(4 ounces) fat-free cream cheese, softened
1
(8-ounce) container frozen fat-free whipped topping, thawed
3 tablespoons
finely chopped salted, dry-roasted peanuts
1/4 cup
shaved milk chocolate (about 1 ounce)
Preheat oven to 350°.
Combine crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and the egg whites.
Toss with a
fork until moist.
Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch deep-dish
pie plate coated with cooking spray. Prick crust with a fork before
baking. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes. Remove from oven; cool on a wire
rack.
Combine milk and remaining 1/4 cup sugar in a heavy saucepan over
medium-low heat. Cook 2 minutes or until sugar dissolves, stirring
constantly; transfer mixture to a bowl. Add peanut butter and vanilla,
stirring with a whisk until combined. Cover and chill 30 minutes.
Place cream cheese in a large bowl, and beat with a mixer at medium
speed until light and fluffy. Add milk mixture, beating on low speed
until combined. Fold in whipped topping;
Pour mixture into prepared
piecrust.
Freeze, uncovered, 8 hours or overnight or until hard.
Sprinkle with peanuts and shaved chocolate. Transfer pie to refrigerator
30 minutes before slicing.
Just make sure not to leave it out once you're done slicing... then you just get a melty mess that you end up throwing away. :/
