Since peanut butter was first used as a pie filling by some nameless Southern cook in the early 1970s, peanut butter pie—a mousse-like peanut butter filling nestled in a crumb crust and topped with whipped cream or chocolate sauce—has become a fixture on picnic tables all over the country. Some recipes call for cooking the peanut butter with eggs, dairy, and sweeteners to create a pudding-style filling, while others, like ours, combine peanut butter with cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and other ingredients in a no-bake filling. In this online cooking class, you will learn how to prepare our recipe, what equipment you should stock in your kitchen, and how to avoid common pie-making challenges.
