Serving Suggestions
Coffee pairs perfectly with this pie. The slight bitterness balances all that creamy sweetness beautifully.
A glass of cold milk is classic, especially if you have kids who want to dunk their forks.
Cut smaller slices than you think. It’s richer than it looks, and people will come back for seconds anyway.
Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts for pretty pieces. Let the pie sit out for about 10 minutes before slicing if it’s been in the fridge all day.
Proper Storage
Keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. It actually gets better as it sits and the flavors meld together.
Don’t try to freeze this one. The cream filling doesn’t freeze well and you’ll lose that perfect smooth texture.
If you need to transport it, keep it chilled until the last minute. This pie travels well in a covered carrier.
Can I Make Changes?
Natural peanut butter: Stick with regular creamy peanut butter. Natural brands can make the crumbles oily and affect the texture.
Different milk: Whole milk works best, but 2% will do in a pinch if that’s what you have on hand.
Sugar concerns: You can use sugar-free pudding mix, though the texture will be slightly different.
Advance preparation: This is perfect for making the day before. The flavors have time to develop beautifully.
