Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

This no-bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is absolutely ridiculous. With a thick and light peanut butter filling and chocolate in the crust and decorations, it's definitely awesome.

I am definitely a substance over style baker and cook. I don't care how ugly something looks as long as it tastes good. The only time I put any effort into making my food look nice is when I take photos for all of you. I know you eat with your eyes, but no amount of creative plating can make up for lack of flavor. Whereas even the ugliest bowl of brownness can be completely vindicated by excellent flavors.

So maybe that's why I'm attracted to witchcraft as well. No amount of makeup or injectables can cover up a bad vibration. But even someone with green skin, scraggly gray hair, or warts can be a powerful and effective magical practitioner with a pristine vibe. It's all about the energy.

What makes this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie so awesome?

Of course, every now and then you come across something that's ridiculously delicious and also fun and easy to make look really impressive. This Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie tastes even better than it looks, and I think it's pretty cute. Made with a thick Oreo cookie crust, a cloud-like layer of peanut butter filling, and free-form chocolate decor, you'll never want to stop eating.

If you're a peanut butter lover, you're going to go absolutely nuts for this. It's definitely more on the sweet side, so I use nice dark chocolate for the spiderweb swirls on top. Cut this into small pieces when you serve because you will probably struggle to volunarily stop eating. Whenever this is in my fridge, I can barely think about anything else.

Magical Properties of Peanuts

Peanuts are ruled by Jupiter and Venus, bringing us prosperity, opportunity, and creativity. With their masculine or projective energy, they can also be used to call in high energy and manifestation. And under the guidance of earth and air, they can be used in spells for grounding. Peanut butter is also great for spells where you want things to remain stuck together.

Tips for making Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

This Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is no-bake, so it is relatively simple. It does have a few different components, though, so will create a lot of dirty dishes.

Make the crust in a food processor if you have one. If you don't, you can bash your cookies with a rolling pin and mix them with the melted butter in a bowl. Then press them into a nice sturdy layer in a tart pan or springform pan.

The filling starts with you whipping cream. You might want to whip it slightly softer than you would for a dessert topping so that it will blend more smoothly with your peanut butter mixture later. For the rest of your filling ingredients, make sure they're all at room temp for easier mixing.

And if you want to add a lovely chocolate topping, you can simply melt some chocolate, add it to a pastry bag or zip top bag, and just snip off a bit of the corner to make a thin hole. Then drizzle on your chocolate in whatever pattern you like. This is a great opportunity to use sigil magick of sacred geometry. If you want to make a swirl or spider web effect, just come back in with a toothpick to create the shapes you want.

Then set the whole thing in the fridge for at least 4 hours. Overnight is even better. The waiting is the hardes part.

I hope you get maximum pleasure from this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie. It's pretty easy to achieve. This pie is freakin' awesome.
