peanut butter pie

2 cups graham cracker crumbs
6 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup smooth peanut butter
1 pound cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups confectioners? sugar
1/3 cup milk
1/4 cup chopped roasted peanuts
6 cups sweetened heavy cream, whipped until thick, in all
1/2 cup chopped salted peanuts
4 ounces chocolate curls and shavings
2 cups chocolate sauce, slightly warm

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a bowl combine the crumbs, butter and 1/4 cup of the peanut butter. Mix thoroughly. Press the mixture into a 9-inch spring-form pan. Bake until golden and crisp, about 6 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Add the remaining 3/4 cup peanut butter. Beat until smooth. Add the milk and roasted peanuts and beat well. Fold 4 cups of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture and spoon into the prepared pan. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until firm, about 2 hours. Remove from the refrigerator and spoon the remaining whipped cream over the entire pie. Slice into individual servings. Garnish with the peanuts, chocolate shaving and chocolate sauce.

classic pecan pie - really simple and reeeeeeeeeeally tasty

3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup sugar
1 cup light or dark corn syrup
2 tablespoons margarine/butter (melted)
1 teaspoon vanilla
1.25 cups pecans
1 (9-inch) unbaked/frozen deep dish pie crust

Preheat oven to 350

In medium bowl with fork beat eggs slightly. Add sugar, corn syrup, margarine and vanilly - stir until blended. Fold in pecans. Pour into pie crust.

Bake 50-55 minutes. Its delicious when the pecans and the filling have sort of carmelized at the top... oooh...

do you feel the same way about sex?

oblongmelon

tis where I got the idea for this concoction..
I have some sisters who wouldn't eat tiramisu because they don't like the taste of it..so i devised this-similar for their finicky sweet tooths..

Brownies are always welcomed i would say. And lemmon squares are fun if you have a blow torch you want to try out.

the only other real big winners i make are rice cripy treats that our dipped in chocolate and/or have a layer of peanut butter and butterscotch in the middle depending on your desire to die happy.

Also, depending on the holiday, i make sugar cookies with cutouts to match the holiday and then frost them with food coloring and arrange them to form a green x-mas tree with yellow stars, or a turkey, or an american flag depending on my holiday.

Good luck with your cooking.

p.s. I bake and cook for others, for myself, i get baskin robins

Ok I found the recipe.

Pumpkin Bars

Mix Until light and fluffy:

4 Eggs
12/3 C sugar
3/4 C oil
1 (15oz) can pumpkin

Add:

2 Cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons cinnamon
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda

Mix thoroughly the spread onto ungreased cookie sheet (or jelly roll pan).

Bake 350 for 25-30 minutes.

You can frost with a cream cheese frosting or you can make the caramel
type frosting by:

Melt together: 1 stick of oleo, 1/2 c brown sugar and 3-4 T milk .
Let cool slightly and add powdered sugar until you get the consistency you
want. I use the beater to do this and make it thicker than a glaze but not as thick as a regular cake frosting. If it seems to thick to you it can be thinned with a little more milk. Not thick enough add more powdered sugar.

Only reason they dont' like this one is cause you're using chocolate ice cream Try using Vanilla!
