Well, I thought that I would shave this recipe with you guys.  This is my new craving.  Oh my gosh it is so good.  And if you buy most of the ingredients that are fat free, then you dont have to worry as much.  But it is a good treat on a hot day!!  I am so in love!!  

                                                 Peanut Butter Silk Pie
Filling

    * 8 ounces cream cheese
    * 1/2 cup peanut butter
    * 1 cup powdered sugar
    * 1 tsp. vanilla
    * 1/2 cup milk
    * 2 cups whipped topping

*Purchase a large graham cracker crust or make your own:
Mix 1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs with 1/4 cup sugar and 1/3 cup melted butter or margarine; pat into a 9-inch pie plate and chill for about 30 minutes before filling. If a crispier crust is desired, bake at 375° for about 7 minutes before filling.

In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with peanut butter, powdered sugar and milk. Fold in whipped topping until well blended. Spoon into pie crust and garnish with chocolate curls and/or chopped peanuts. Chill thoroughly before serving.

Let me know what you ladies think. ENJOY!!

I wish my tummy could handle sweet things right now but unfortunately that is the one thing that will turn me green in an instant. I think my DH would love this though! Although maybe a nice chocolate glazing over the top would be more to his liking....

Why do so many peanut butter recipes sounds so scrumptious (sp?)? I unfortunately have a peanut allergy and I will share this with my friends...
