It’s finally spring, the tulips and daffodils are finally blooming and Easter just a few days away. That means planting season will soon be upon us but before you dig too far into your garden. you might want to take a close look at the forecast. There are still a couple of nights that will be in the mid-20s this week and tender plants just won’t like that kind of cold.

While the ham may be the star of most Easter meals, this peanut butter pie may give the main course a run for its money.

I started making peanut butter pie as a thank you to some friends who helped cut up a tree that fell at our house last year. This recipe is pretty simple to make. You can also elaborately garnish it or leave it on the simple side with some fresh whipped cream or prepared whipped cream on the top.

Here’s what you’ll need:

Peanut butter pie

1 9” prepared graham cracker crust

1 8 oz block of softened cream cheese

1/2 cup of creamy peanut butter

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 16 oz contained of thawed whipped topping

Optional for garnish

Melted chocolate chips

Melted peanut butter

Assorted chocolate and peanut butter candies

Mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar and peanut butter until smooth. Add in about half the whipped topping. Spoon mixture into the prepared crust.

Use remaining whipped topping on the top of the pie and garnish with chocolate peanut butter candies.

If you have time, you can also make your own fresh whipped cream for the top of the pie. It’s actually quite quick and easy to make.

You’ll need the following:

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 tablespoon powdered sugar

In a large bowl, whip the cream until stiff peaks almost form then beat in the vanilla and powdered sugar until peaks form. Put the fresh whipped cream in a sandwich bag or other zippered storage bag. Cut off one of the corner tips and pipe whipped cream around the edges of the pie before garnishing with melted chocolate, peanut butter or candy pieces.
