Frozen Peanut Butter Pie Recipe

  American Pies

Ingredients:
Crust
1/3 cup unsalted butter
One 6-ounce package semisweet chocolate chips
21/2 cups Kellogg's Rice Krispies cereal
Filling
One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature
One 10-ounce can sweetened condensed milk
3/4 cup peanut butter
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup heavy cream
Chocolate fudge sauce, for drizzling

Directions:
Crust:
Melt the butter and chocolate chips in a heavy saucepan over low heat. Remove from the heat and gently stir in the Rice Krispies until they are completely coated. Press into the bottom and up the sides of a buttered 9-inch pie plate. Chill for 30 minutes.

Filling:
Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl until fluffy. Gradually beat in the condensed milk and peanut butter until smooth. Stir in the lemon juice and vanilla. Whip the cream and fold into the peanut butter mixture. Pour into the crust. Drizzle the fudge sauce over the pie and freeze for 4 hours, or until firm. Leftovers may be wrapped and returned to the freezer. Makes one 9-inch single-crust pie.
