Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Pudding Pie
"This is an easy pie I put together one weekend when I was craving peanut butter, chocolate and bananas. The peanut butter layer keeps the crust from getting soggy, so this pie keeps well - that is if it lasts long enough to have leftovers. Any single crust 9" pie shell will work - I prefer a baked crust, but a crumb crust is fine. Cooking time is pie chilling time."

ingredients
- 9 inches pie crusts, pre-baked if needed
- 5 ounces chocolate pudding, box cook and serve style
- 3 cups whole milk
- 4 ounces cream cheese
- 1⁄3 cup peanut butter, creamy style
- 1⁄2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 medium bananas, peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
directions
- If using a baked pie crust, pre-bake in a 9" pan and cool before proceeding.
- If using a crumb crust, prepare a 9" pan accordingly.
- Mix cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar and vanilla and blend until smooth using a mixer on medium speed.
- Gently spread the peanut butter mixture in an even layer into the prepared pie shell, including the sides of the pie crust. A rubber or silicone spatula works well.
- Press sliced bananas into the peanut butter mixture, "standing up" around the sides of the pie shell, and a layer in the bottom.
- Cook the pudding mix according to box directions, cool five minutes and then pour into pie shell over the bananas.
- Smooth the pudding, cover with plastic wrap, and chill at least 3 hours before serving.
- Serve topped with whipped cream or whipped topping.

<p>I live in Colorado Springs. I enjoy collecting, reading and trying recipes from old cookbooks -- they are always an interesting window into domestic history. I enjoy learning classic cooking techniques and then applying them to home cooking. I am currently working on learning about the five "mother sauces" and the variety of sauces that can be made from them. But I'm also a big fan of plain old mid-western farm cooking, too, which I learned from my grandmother and mother.</p>
