Peanut Butter–Chocolate Banana Pie

Since I made 2 of these this week, (I LOVE this pie) I thought I should share the recipe. I’ve shared it with you before, but now I have pics with my cute helper.

ingredients:

1 graham cracker crust

1 1/2 squares BAKER’s Semi Sweet Chocolate

1/2 cup peanut butter

2 bananas, cut lengthwise in half, then crosswise into quarters

1 pkg Vanilla pudding (large 6 servings one)

1 1/2 cups milk

2 cups whipped cream, divided

make it:

lay the cut bananas in the base of pie crust.

Take 1 chocolate square and grate it for a second. Just enough to get a desired amount of shavings for the top of the pie. Set aside shavings.

Place Peanut Butter and remaining chocolate squares in a bowl and microwave for 1 minute. Stir. Microwave 1 more minute. Stir.

Pour chocolate mixture over bananas in pie crust. Try to cover the bananas as best you can.

Get a cute 4 year old to help you mix the pudding mix and milk.

Let her stir in about 1 1/2 cups whipped cream into the pudding.

Ignore her when she says that will make the pudding “disgusting”. Let her lick the bowl to prove her wrong.

Pour the pudding/whipped cream mixture over top of chocolate bananas.

Refrigerate for 3 hours . . . if you can wait that long.
