Peanut Butter Pie

 This Peanut Butter Pie is light and fluffy and full of peanut butter goodness.  Crushed peanut butter cups on top are the perfect topping!

Peanut Butter Pie

I originally made this peanut butter pie for a pie competition at church.  I didn’t win but my dish came home empty so I call that a winner.
