I am not a dessert person and can easily pass up a piece of cake or after dinner desserts.
But not this one.
OMG, it is like mousse and creamy deliciousness with subtle peanut butter on a crunchy wonderful crust meet up in rich delight. I have had pies from Costco before and have been underwhelmed with them, but THIS one takes the top prize. It is a very big rich pie so it is best to share with friends and/or neighbors. I already cut out a portion to save for myself in a lidded glass pyrex square.
It is quite messy – or maybe it is because I cut it and plop it on my plate so I can dig in right away. No matter. This one is a winnah!
Update: After having a piece a day for 3 days in a row, I am overloaded and don’t like how sweet it is. We ended up giving our neighbors three quarters of it and hope they like it.
OMG! You just made my mouth water. I shall have to tell Art about this.
It is too sweet for me now. The best bite is the first one. And that’s good enough for me.
My favorite before was Ted’s chocolate haupia pie. Hmmm… I should try getting it again. 🙂
I used to like that pie – but now it is too sweet for me. My taste buds are changing.
I can pass up most desserts too with the exception of fruit pies. They always have a soft spot in my heart/room in my stomach.
However, peanut butter in desserts or entrees is something I rarely enjoy. About the only way I enjoy peanut butter is will some jelly between two slices of bread.
I love pumpkin and custard pies best – but the key is having great crust.
OMGAWD that looks so good!!
It IS so good – especially the very first slice. Now that I have had 3 slices, it is too sweet for me. The crust is the winner.
