How to Make the Best Ever Peanut Butter Cookie Pie

Peanut Butter Cookie Pie is the most amazing treat to share. There’s something so moist and decadent and truly one of a kind about Peanut Butter Cookie Pie. The cookie part makes it so much fun.

I love peanut cookies to start with, and so does my younger daughter. She is the world’s biggest peanut butter fan. Thank goodness this child doesn’t have a peanut allergy or we’d be at a total loss for what to feed her. I mean I suppose there’s always pizza. She could subsist on pizza, carrots and celery and peanut butter and jelly sandwiches.

Anyways if you are looking for a fun new treat to share at home or with friends this is it. Moist and comforting somehow peanut butter cookies are such a happy family treat. At home, they are a family favourite and so simple to make. Peanut butter cookie pie takes the peanut butter cookie recipe and elevates it. I call this one loaded peanut butter cookie pie simply because of all the goodness on top.

 

 

Obviously don’t share peanuts without knowing if any child or friend is allergic first. I can’t share this one when my niece or nephew are around, and I certainly am sure to steer clear of all allergens when they are visiting. And I never take nuts or baked goods featuring nuts to bake sales or extracurriculars because that is a disaster waiting to happen and a health risk for many. However, at home peanut butter cookies are a fan favourite.
