    This pie is Great! I changed a few things so I dont really think reviewing it would give it justice.. However here is what I did and it was fantastic. I used creamy Peanut Butter, I used cool Whip instead of whipped cream and I like to make my own pie shell out of crushed Nutter Butter Cookies and butter just like you would for a grahm cracker crust.. I also add crushed nutter butters to the top with shaved chocolate and chocolate syrup ribbons and cool whipp on top. Also add Honey roastes peanuts to the top. Beautiful and YUMMY!!!

    I followed the recipe to a T, but 2 cups of whipped creams was way too much -- the peanut butter and cream cheese got lost in all that whipped cream, in my opinion.

    If you dialed back the whipped cream by at least a cup and cut down a little on the suger, it might turn out much better.

    I made this and then chilled it for 18 hours and the filling had a souplike consistency. Don't know if i did anything wrong but i read the recipe 3 times prior and 3 times following making it. I wish it woulda turned out because my fiance liked the taste of the filling.
