BANANA CREAM & PEANUT BUTTER MOUSSE PIE
My pie is special because it is ultra creamy and has three foods I desire most-peanut butter, banana and milk chocolate. I opted to make my own pie filling from scratch as it takes very little time and the result is definitely worth it. The peanut butter mousse is light and has velvety smooth texture. It is a melt-in-your mouth dessert and my husband gave it a 5-star rating.-Barbara Estabrook, Rhinelander, Wisconsin

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of peanut butter, but I still enjoyed this pie. The banana cream layer is so good that it makes up for the peanut butter.
