Peanut Butter Cream Pie With Coffee Recipe to Indulge Your Sweet Craving

Peanut butter cream pie just got a delicious upgrade with an addition of instant coffee that makes for a perfect, cool summer dessert. If you happen to long for a pie that is easy, velvety smooth with luscious peanut butter-coffee flavor and a decadent crumb topping, intensifying that awesome peanut butter goodness, then my recipe is a must.

If you like more of a crunchy crumb topping, you can substitute crunchy peanut butter instead of the creamy for it. However, I prefer using the creamy peanut butter for softer crumbs. Both of the choices are equally wonderful.

Another great thing about my peanut butter cream pie is that it holds up well in the refrigerator. It won’t break down as some pudding type pies may do. In fact, this pie even takes on more peanut-coffee flavor the next day.

As I mentioned, I hate to devote extra work to bake or cook if I can accomplish the same thing without sacrificing quality. This is the reason that I always use my oil pie crust for this peanut butter cream pie. By the way, I always stick to that one crust recipe when making dessert pies, crust for quiche, pot pie, tarts, etc. because the crust is so simple and never disappoints in how flaky it can be.

I am really fond of peanut butter and could eat it just by itself. But I also love cooking and baking with it and have made some other incredible pies from it such as my chocolate peanut butter pie, best peanut butter pie, and frozen peanut butter pie. These are just a few of my favorite pies. Check my search box because I make a lot of different peanut butter cookies and cakes as well.

Peanut Butter Cream Pie With Coffee and Peanut Topping

½ cups of creamy or crunchy peanut butter
3/4 cup of confectioners’ sugar
1 baked 9-inch pie crust
½ cups of sugar
2 heaping teaspoons of flour
1 tablespoon of instant coffee
1 can of evaporated milk (14 ½ ounces)
2 egg yolks
½ teaspoons of vanilla extract

Mix the peanut butter and confectioners’ sugar in your mixing bowl until crumbly. Spread 2/3 of your crumbs at the bottom of your baked pie shell. (The remaining 1/3 of the crumbs will be for your topping).

Add the sugar, flour, salt, instant coffee, evaporated milk, and egg yolks to your pot. Mix thoroughly to blend the ingredients before cooking on medium heat until slightly thickened, stirring constantly.

Remove from the heat and add the vanilla extract to combine with the cooked mixture.

Pour the peanut butter pie mixture into the waiting pie shell and sprinkle the remaining crumb topping over it. Chill thoroughly before serving.

ENJOY!
