    I love peanut butter, but I couldn't imagine how a peanut butter pie would taste. I loved it, and so did my guests. It's a pretty rich dessert, but that's what Paula does best!

    This pie is very tasty and so easy to make! I love peanut butter but not usually a fan of peanut butter pies because they are to rich. The whipped cream in this recipe really makes this pie. Thanks Paula!

    Fantastic!!! I also used creamy peanut butter (because I have dentures. It is better chilled overnight like Kait21 said. It has a cheese cake consistency instead of the pudding type pies, which is great. Use your extra whipping cream and make some to top it with....mmmmmm

    Absolutely the BEST peanut butter pie! And so easy to make! This was the first Paula Deen recipe I've ever tried and I LOVED it!

    Really good peanut butter pie! I think I may have liked it better if I used a chocolate crust. However, I did add melted hot fudge and crumbled Reese's to the top of the pie! Great addition! It needed the chocolate to contrast with all of the peanut butter. I felt that the pie tasted a lot better after sitting over night in the fridge instead of eating it after a couple of hours chilling. However, REALLY creamy and smooth. Would make again, but would add the chocolate crust!

    This pie is amazing! I made it for a bake off at my company picnic and I won first place, the pie was gone in just a few minutes and everyone was asking for the recipe! You can't beat the simplicity of it either. I did use an Oreo chocolate crust and I used creamy peanut butter (mostly because I don't like crunchy and I also topped it with Shell (it's a chocolate that hardens when it gets cold and I felt that broke up the richness from all the peanut butter. Please do yourself a favor and try this!

    This pie is tasty and very easy to make. I did cut back on the sugar, skipping the granulated sugar in the whipped cream and cutting back the powdered sugar to around 3/4 cup. Still seemed plenty sweet to me! In fact, I was wishing I had some salted peanuts to add to the top--I think that would have made a great contrast. I also made a chocolate cookie crust as I didn't have any graham crackers. I think more chocolate would have put this pie over the top. Next time I'll add some melted chocolate on top like others have suggested, or perhaps make a ganache and add to the crust before the filling. Still a good solid base to work from.

    I made this because I love peanut butter. It turned out amazing. The only little thing I added was I melted a milk chocolate Lindt chocolate bar and drizzled it on top of the pie. It was the perfect topping to this delicious, decadent pie. Also a great pie to bring to a party ... super easy and people will think you spent a lot longer making this than you really did.

    I made this for Father's Day, and it was wonderful. Instead of heaving whipping cream, I used an 8oz tub of Cool Whip and omited the 1/4 cup of sugar since cool whip is already sweetened. I dressed it with hersey's chocolate syrup on top. I would definitely make this again, for family and get togethers, it's a great dessert.

    All I have to say is that my husband was speechless after he took a bite of this pie! We love it, and it is soooo easy to make. I did not have crunchy peanut butter on hand, so I simply used natural creamy peanut butter, and it was still wonderfully delicious =
