Fabulous Candy Bar Pie Food

NO-BAKE CANDY BAR PIE

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. Crush the candy bars; fold 1 cup into cream cheese mixture. Spoon into crust. Sprinkle with remaining candy bar crumbs. Refrigerate for 2-4 hours before slicing.

CHOCOLATE CANDY BAR PIE

Steps:

• 1. Melt chocolate and butter in saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat; let stand 2 minutes. 2. Add whipped topping to saucepan; fold together until completely blended. 3. Pour chocolate mixture into pie crust. Cover with plastic lid; freeze at least 2 hours.

PEANUT BUTTER-CHOCOLATE PIE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch pie plate. Pulse the graham crackers and peanuts in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse to combine. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the side of the prepared pie plate. Bake until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
• Meanwhile, put the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 50 percent power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth. Spread evenly in the prepared crust with a small offset spatula or the back of a spoon; set aside until the chocolate sets, about 10 minutes.
• Make the filling: Beat the heavy cream in a bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form; refrigerate until ready to use. In another bowl, beat the peanut butter, cream cheese, milk and vanilla on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar and mix on low speed until incorporated.
• Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until combined, then fold in the rest. Spoon into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours or overnight. Top with shaved chocolate before serving.

FABULOUS CANDY BAR PIE

Steps:

• Crush 5 of the candy bars.
• Combine Cool Whip, cream cheese and candy bars.
• Mix well.
• Place mixture in graham cracker crust.
• Crush the remaining candy bar and use for topping.
• Chill until firm (approximately 20-30 min).
• With this recipe I generally try to not use Light Cool Whip or fat free cream cheese unless I can chill the pie overnight - It has a tendency to make the pie run (even after it has chilled overnight) - You can use regular Cool Whip and reduced fat cream cheese, however.
• Candy bars: I prefer Butterfinger or Heath - They are usually sold in a 6 pack, but if you can't find the regular sized bars, purchase 2-10 packs of the fun sized bars (reserve 3 of them for topping).

SNICKERS BAR PIE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 450°.
• Place pie crust in a glass pie pan and bake for 5-7 minutes, or till very light golden brown; remove from oven and cool; reduce oven temperature to 325°.
• Cut candy bars in half lengthwise; cut into 1/4-inch pieces and arrange over bottom of the partially baked crust.
• Combine sugar and cream cheese; beat until smooth; add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition; add sour cream and peanut butter, beating until mixture is smooth; spoon over candy bar pieces.
• Bake at 325° for 30-40 minutes or until center is set; cool 2 hours or until completely cooled.
• Heat whipping cream in a small saucepan until very warm; remove from heat and add chocolate chips, stir until melted and mixture is smooth; spread over top of pie.
• Refrigerate 2-3 hours before serving; store leftovers in the fridge.
