    5. Before serving, drizzle some melted chocolate and sprinkle chopped peanuts

    • Keep in the fridge, covered, up to 5 days.
    • Instead of Oreo cookies, you can use digestive cookies or any other biscuits.
    • The topping is optional. You can use any topping that you like.

    Can the peanut butter pie be made ahead of time and frozen. Will flavor and texture change if frozen. Thanks

      Hi,
      Yes you can make the pie and keep it in the fridge or freezer.
      In the fridge up to 3-4 days.
      In the freezer at least few weeks.
      Don’t worry about the taste, just make just to taw the pie before.

  2. Made this for a lunch with friends – turned out beautifully and got rave reviews. I didn’t have a tart pan with a loose base, so used a regular pie plate. Easy to cut and serve.
