INGREDIENTS:

  • 1 cup Jif® Creamy Peanut Butter, plus 2 tablespoons, divided
    •
  • 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
    •
  • 1/2 cup sugar
    •
  • 1 (12 oz.) container (4 1/2 cups) frozen whipped topping, thawed and divided

DIRECTIONS:

  1. BEAT together 1 cup peanut butter, cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with an electric mixer on medium, until well combined. Gently mix in 3 cups whipped topping until thoroughly combined. Spoon mixture into pie shell. Using a spatula, smooth mixture to edges of pie.
  2. RESERVE 2 tablespoons of hot fudge topping into the corner of a resealable food storage bag; set aside. Microwave remaining topping on HIGH (100% power) for 1 minute. Stir. Spread topping over pie, covering entire peanut butter layer. Refrigerate until set. Spread remaining whipped topping (1 1/2 cups), over hot fudge layer, being careful not to mix the two layers.
  3. CUT a small corner from bag containing topping. Squeeze bag to drizzle topping over pie. Place remaining 2 tablespoons peanut butter in a resealable food storage bag; cut bag corner and squeeze to drizzle in opposite direction from topping. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Yummmmm! This pie is so easy to make and everyone Loves it!! 12/01/2011
THE BEST I found this recipe in a magazine while waiting for my kids at the public library at least 5 yrs ago. It is a MUST HAVE at every holiday and is requested by my co-workers often. I have even had co-workers sign me up to make it themselves!! It is truly the best peanut butter pie recipe ever. 11/06/2011
None better!! Doubled the recipe and made this in an oversized roasting pan for my staff at work. However, I bought 3 chocolate pie crusts and dumped into the bottom of the pan. Also added some chopped up Reese's Pieces to the filling and on top.. Not a bit left at the end of the day!! MAKE THIS PIE!!!! 08/05/2011
Absolutely, without a doubt, the very best! I have been making this recipe for about 3 years now. Everywhere we go, I am requested to bring a peanut butter pie. People take their pie before they take their entreé to be sure they will get a piece! There are several variations to help drop calories. Jif now has Simply Jif which drops sugar and sodium as well as their reduced fat variety. I've also used 1/3 less fat cream cheese, Splenda Blend, Cool Whip Light and sugar free hot fudge. The fat free cream cheese doesn't hold together well or have the right consistency. The peanut butter flavor is amazing as this is the first recipe to have enough peanut butter to make the difference. I also recently made a large trifle with the same ingredients as I would have had to make at least 3-4 pies. It worked well with Oreo/chocolate cookie crumbs, etc. in layers. This pie is a sure winner no matter how you fix it!! 07/28/2011
