Peanut Butter Pie Cups are the perfect amount of sweet and salty all wrapped up in a cup. these ooey-gooey cups of frozen peanut butter pie were so good the whole family ate them before I could get many pictures!

Hey, everyone! I’m Grace Hayes, Joan’s daughter and I’ll be taking over the blog to honor her memory! I looked up to my mom in so many ways, and she also taught me everything I know about baking. I was always her main assistant in the kitchen and sometimes she even let me take over and run the show.

 

 

 

 

 

 

I got the idea for these as I was scrolling through social media and instantly wanted to try to make this delicious looking pie with my own twist on the recipe but my pie pan was dirty and I thought, “maybe I should make little miniature pies instead”, and I’m gonna be honest, they are so tasty! These mini pies are perfect for any occasion and are perfect for those little ones to have a little pie all to themselves.

This recipe will knock your socks off, only requiring a few ingredients and simple steps, you’ll be enjoying these ice cream-like peanut butter pie cups in no time. Just mix, freeze, decorate and BOOM they’re ready to eat! 

Every Christmas eve, my family gets together and makes a bunch of appetizer type foods and desserts and I know this year, these peanut butter pie cups will make that list!

My 3-year-old nephew Edward, who loves all things sweet, doesn’t like peanut butter but I tricked him into eating a peanut butter pie cup and he loved it and instantly wanted more! If I can get him to eat it, I’m sure your whole family might love it too!
