Poppa’s Favorite Peanut Butter Pie

My husband really likes…no I take that back…LOVES peanut butter. In fact, Reese’s peanut butter cups are his favorite candy - minus the chocolate - I know, it doesn’t make sense to me either :)

When I came across this no bake recipe almost two years ago,  I knew he’d like it. However, I was wrong - he absolutely fell in love with it :)

What You Need

1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 1/2 cups confectioners’ sugar
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup milk
1 (16 ounce) package frozen whipped topping, thawed
2 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crusts

This last picture was supposed to be of my hubby and #2 eating their yummy pie…but unfortunately, #2 was really acting her age, so she did’t get to have any….Perhaps next time :P

Let me say straight off that I messed these up. I think it was my muffin pan, really. They fell apart as I took them out of the tin…and I even greased it!  Next time I’m going to either get a new muffin pan, or muffin liners. However, even though over 80% of the muffins [...]

When I think back to when my mom would bake, I can always remember her baking banana bread. Hers was good, but a little too banana-y. Over the past few years, I have tried to find a PERFECT banana bread recipe - they’re either too banana-y (as I mentioned), too dry, or tastes like card [...]

WOW- it took me a week and a half to catch my breath from our trip to Florida! But what did I expect after traveling with three girls (ages 6 and under, by the way) from our home in Virginia to southern Florida to Orlando and back home again? And yes - Orlando included Disney.Oh.My.Goodness.
