Peanut Butter Silk Pie image

While out on a date one afternoon, my husband and I had some peanut butter pie with our dessert. I told him I didn't really like it because it tasted fake and that I could make a better one. I modified a French Silk Pie recipe that I had found, added some ganache to the bottom of the pie crust and this is the result. It is super rich, so small slices are recommended. I use raw eggs, as I can get fresh laid eggs from pet chickens, please us pasteurized if you have to get your eggs from the grocery store.

Time 40m

Yield 1 pie, 8-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 baked pie crust
1/2 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup chocolate chips, plus extra for garnish
caramel sauce, for drizzling
whipped cream (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Whip the butter & peanut butter until light and fluffy.
  • Add the sugar & vanilla, whip until combined.
  • Add the eggs ONE at a time, beating for 3 minutes after each egg. (This is important for it to be fluffy!) Scrape the bowl between each egg.
  • Nuke the whipping cream for 45 seconds to 1 minute (it should be very hot.)
  • Add the 1/2 cup of choc chips, let melt and whisk together until smooth. Pour the ganache into the bottom of your cooled pie crust.
  • Top with the pb mixture, refrigerate.
  • Let it chill for 3 hours (overnight is even better), drizzle with caramel sauce, garnish with whipped cream and sprinkle with chocolate chips.
