1 tablespoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces creamy peanut butter
2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar

  • For the marshmallow frosting: In small saucepan, combine the granulated sugar, 5 ounces water and the cream of tarter and boil until the sugar dissolves, stirring occasionally.
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer with the whisk attachment, beat the egg whites and vanilla until firm peaks form. With mixer on high, slowly stream the hot sugar mixture into the egg whites and mix for about 3 minutes.

I've enjoyed this delicious pie for as long as I remember. If not at local restaurants, gram or my aunt made them. For this pie, the homemade crust is best! Enjoy!

Categories     Pies

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 14

CRUST
1 1/2 c graham cracker crumbs
7 Tbsp butter, melted
1/4 c brown sugar, packed
1/2 tsp cinnamon
CREAM FILLING
4 large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1 1/4 c milk
1 c heavy cream
1 c sugar
1/4 c corn starch
1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp salt
2 Tbsp butter, room temperature

Steps:

  • 1. For crust: Preheat oven to 325 degree F. Melt butter, add to crumbs, sugar and cinnamon. Mix until thoroughly blended. Press into a 9 inch or 9 1/2 inch pie plate ( which is what I used ) I use a cup to press on the bottom and my fingers to press sides firmly.
  • 2. Bake for 10 minutes and then cool completely.
  • 3. While crust cools, make filling. In a medium saucepan, over med heat, whisk together, yolks, sugar, milk, cream, vanilla, butter and salt. Whisk constantly until thickens. Lower heat and continue cooking for another seven minutes.
  • 4. Pour into prepared crust. Cover filling with plastic wrap, so the top of pudding doesn't form a skin. Chill several hours or until set enough to cut.
  • 5. I run about an inch of hot water in sink and set cold pie in the water, holding around edges for a few seconds to make easier to cut and remove crumb crust easily. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs!

Tips:

  • For a crispier crust, pre-bake the graham cracker crust before filling it.
  • Use high-quality cream cheese for a smooth and creamy filling.
  • Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
  • Top the pie with fresh fruit, whipped cream, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce before serving.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9-inch pie plate. Just trim the excess graham cracker crust around the edges.

Conclusion:

This easy graham cracker cream pie is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. With its creamy filling, crispy crust, and fresh fruit topping, this pie is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it. So next time you're looking for a simple and delicious dessert, give this graham cracker cream pie a try.
