Last week Karen C requested a recipe for Peanut Butter Pie. We had several
submissions.  Thanks to all!

From Diana G:
Good afternoon!

Karen C. requested a recipe for Peanut Butter Pie.  This one makes absolutely
the BEST Peanut Butter Pie my husband and I have ever tasted!  It's not heavy
like so many are.  The consistency and flavor are just perfect for dessert. 
(Or for a mid-afternoon snack, for that matter!) I don't think she'll be
disappointed with this one! Diane in Central Illinois

PEANUT BUTTER PIE
1 pre-made 9" chocolate cookie crust 1 c. peanut butter
1/2 c. sugar
8 oz. cream cheese
12 oz. whipped cream (or 1 8 oz. tub Cool Whip) 2 T. hot fudge or chocolate
sauce for garnish (optional)

Whip together peanut butter, sugar & cream cheese.  Fold in whipped cream. 
Fill crust & chill completely before serving.  Drizzle with hot fudge or
chocolate just before serving, if desired.

From James H (Jim has a good memory! He found this in a previous Newsletter
from Carol T!):
Karen C requested a recipe for Peanut Butter Pie - It sounds like one you had
in one of your newsletters a while back and I had saved. Don't know how long
back but here is what you I saved:
