This easy-peasy No Bake Peanut Butter Pie recipe is so creamy and rich that guests and family will love every bite! I whipped up this amazing pie from scratch in just a few minutes – and stirring in chunks of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups made it an extra special treat. A ready made pie crust speeds up the time to make this dessert recipe, and its handy built-in cover makes it perfect for transporting, too.

  1. First of all I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question which I’d like to ask if you do not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind before writing. I’ve had a hard time clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts out. I do enjoy writing however it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are generally wasted simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any recommendations or hints? Kudos!
