My version of a Peanutbutter Chocolate Cream Pie

Kevinpa · 08-13-2006, 06:06 PM

You guys have been making me hungry with all this talk about peanutbutter pie so I decided to try my hand at it.

You can't have peanutbutter without chocolate so I made one of my Mock Chocolate Graham Cracker Crust and let it cool.

Then in an electric mixing bowl I combined:

8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup LC crunchy peanutbutter

I then added and mixed in:

1 cup sifted vanilla whey protein powder
2 Tablespoons of Davinci peanutbutter syrup
1 Tablespoon heavy cream
1 cup equivilent liquid splenda

When it was well combined and smooth I folded in:

1/2 can SF Land O Lakes Whipped Heavy Cream

When completely folded in I put the filling into the cooled pie crust and shaved part of a 1 carb chocolate bar on top and chilled to set in freezer for 15 minutes. I then transfered it to the fridge till it was time to serve....

Yum!

Hope you enjoy.

8 servings @ 4.5 carbs each

Omg that looks wonderful.

Ty so much for posting the recipe.

TXLoser · 08-14-2006, 05:14 AM

Thanks Kevin..looks easy enough even for me to try.....

Everything you make is so delicious looking. YOu are like this peddler of FOOD PORN!

Seriously that looks absolutely delicious

.

How does the crust taste, it is a nice deep rich chocolate flavor? Good crunch, like a gram cracker crust?

Kevinpa · 08-15-2006, 12:48 AM

If I put the word mock to something Wooo I think the flavor is close enough to fool me. And if I made it and could be fooled by it I concider that tasting like a convincing counterfeit of the real thing.
In the case of this crust, I have made this crust with numerous different pies and in a blind taste test of a finished product, I couldn't tell you which was which between it or the homemade version. I [COLOR=DarkRed]does not[/COLOR] though, remind me of the store bought pre-made version. It is very seldom I get really impressed with the taste and texture of things I make. This impressed me and is a major candidate for portion control.

OMGGGGGGGGG That looks sooooooooooooooooooooo good...

melo42 · 08-15-2006, 12:50 PM

YOU are so funny. Kevin the food pimp !!!! LOL. I love it. Made my day. Thank`s !!!!

helper · 08-15-2006, 01:22 PM

Your pie looks just super, Kevin.
I do not have any D p-butter syrup but I do have some Loran Oils p-b flavoring. Can you or anyone give me an appox. am't of Loran to use in lieu of the D syrup?
Thanks, helper

Kevinpa · 08-15-2006, 01:30 PM

Since I only used 2 T of Davinci and I know from having use oils in the past, you would only want to use a very small amount. If it were me, and I didn't have Davinci, I might just opt to go with 2 T more of PeanutButter and 1 T more of heavy cream. It would not add many more total carbs.

helper · 08-15-2006, 01:49 PM

Thanks for the advice. I am wondering what you would call a small am't of the oil, in this case. Are you suggesting drops or 1/8 tsp. Might want to try it, but don't want to totally ruin the batch.
Thanks, helper

Kevinpa · 08-15-2006, 02:05 PM

yea, 1/8 of a teaspoon in 2 T. water and test it to see how strong it is.

DENMW · 08-19-2006, 10:02 AM

Tooooo dangerous looking for me.

I know I can't be trusted.

mom2twoboys · 08-19-2006, 11:14 AM

OMG that looks so good! My DS is very allergic to peanuts so I do not cook with them but I might go to my sisters house just to make this. LOL

Brendajm · 08-29-2006, 03:47 AM

peanut butter is a favorite here, how does it taste with protein powder? I never made it that way. Has anyone made this pie yet and can give a review? thanks

I guess I am the only one that has made it.

I am not a great lover of whey protein powder but decided to use it for the texture. I used sifted vanilla Designer Whey because many rich cream pies call for some amounts of powdered sugar and this brought a resemblance of that to this pie without overpowering the flavor of it or adding greatly to the carb count. I was actually quite suprised and please at how well this worked. The only review I can offer is that it only lasted 1 day at my house.

Brendajm · 09-06-2006, 04:54 AM

thanks for replying Kevin, I think I will try a half size version of it . My dh wont eat it, but I work with a girl that will try anything LC that I make..

Same here. I can't wait to try this but know there'd be a serious issue with portion control!

kayecat · 09-07-2006, 11:09 AM

This looks too good! Which Designer Whey vanilla did you use? Praline or French?

I used the french although I bet the praline would be good also.

Topazz · 09-07-2006, 11:35 AM

I wish I could try all your recipes Kevin. But being allergic to wheat products, all I can do is drool over the pictures. Dern it!

1/2 can SF Land O Lakes Whipped Heavy Cream

Sorry Beth,

I have used it so many times that I can usually tell by spraying it.

About 6 cups...give or take a cup.

You can pretty much tell when it looks like it will fill your crust.

Next time I make something with SF Land O Lakes Whipped Heavy Cream I will measure how much a half a can is exactly.

Sorry again for the ambiguity.

OK Beth, I decided to make something with SF Land O Lakes Whipped Heavy Cream and I measured 13 cups in a whole can so my guess was close.

WOW, thank you so much! Hard to believe you can get 13 cups out of that can!

By the way what did you make with it? Another new Yummy dish to share???
