Whenever I make this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie, the following scenario typically plays out: As everyone starts to eat this luscious dessert, the room falls silent. Then someone – usually with their mouth still full of pie – mutters, “Oh. My. GAWD! This pie is amazing!!” PIN THIS RECIPE NOW! And it is a really, REALLY good Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie! A light and creamy peanut butter filling made with creamy peanut butter, cream cheese and whipped cream is spooned into a sweet, buttery graham cracker crumb crust. Then, the pie is topped with a rich chocolate ganache. No matter how many times I’ve made (and eaten) this pie – it makes me swoon! I first had this amazing Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie at the East Coast Grill in Cambridge, Massachusetts, the now-closed but once-legendary barbecue and seafood restaurant owned by grilling expert Chris Schlesinger. When he published his cookbook, The Thrill of the Grill, I myself was thrilled to discover that the recipe for this pie was included. Over the years, I’ve made this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie so often that I know the recipe by heart. And every time I make this pie, I get asked for the recipe! My nephew Ryan loves this pie so much that every year for his birthday, he requests this dessert instead of a birthday cake. (It’s seriously good…especially if you love the combination of chocolate and peanut butter together!) We’ve gently adapted this pie recipe from the original found in the cookbook. At the restaurant, this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie was served just slightly chilled so the filling was soft and creamy. But, we actually prefer this pie served slightly frozen with a firmer, almost ice cream-like consistency. Either way you eat it, this is one very memorable dessert!
