Peanut Butter Pie with Pretzel Crust

Image
A pie with pretzels, peanut butter, cream cheese and chocolate - a combination of crunchy and creamy, sweet and salty.... it sounds wonderful, doesn’t it? Ingredients 3 cups of ground pretzels, (about 6-7 cups whole pretzels, you can ground these until they are crumbs or leave them a bit thicker for more of a toffee bark texture) , plus more for decoration about 1/4 cup 1 cup butter, melted 1/3 cup sugar 1 1/4 cup milk chocolate chips 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1 1/4 cup peanut butter, crunchy (I used crunchy for texture) 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted 1/2 tsp vanilla extract 12 oz Cool Whip (you can use lite) Reese's Mini Peanut Butter Cups for decoration Get the full recipe and instructions here >> Peanut Butter Pie with Pretzel Crust @ sugarapron.com

Lemon Meringue Ice Cream

Fantastic recipe!  I added some bits of graham cracker crust and it tastes just like my grandma’s lemon pie. Best ice cream ever! You have to admit, it’s really rather brilliant: lemon meringue pie in ice cream form. I wasn’t sure exactly what would happen, but the marshmallowy meringue gives the ice cream a light and airy cloud-like texture and super scoopability you won’t believe (seriously, you can scoop this right out of the freezer as if it were lemon mousse and not ice cream at all). this ice cream utilizes the entire egg: the yolks are cooked into the rich and creamy custard base, while the whites are whipped up into a sweet and fluffy meringue, swirled into the frozen custard at the very end.
