Tasty Tuesday: 5 Minute 5 Star Nutella Peanut Butter Pie

This recipe is so quick and easy. It is perfect to make if you need a go to dessert!  FYI: it makes 2 pies.  You can half the recipes if you prefer to only make one.  (Once you taste it, I am willing to bet you will make both :)

Ingredients:
2 (9 inch) store bought Graham Cracker pie crusts (may substitute for Oreo pie crusts)
1 8 oz block softened cream cheese
3/4 cup Creamy Peanut Butter
3/4 cup Nutella 
1 cup Powdered Sugar
1 16 oz. container of Cool Whip
Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Chocolate Flavored syrup

In a mixing bowl, cream together softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and Nutella.  Once combined, add in 8 oz. Cool Whip, slowly combining until mixture is smooth

  
Now, stir in semi-sweet chocolate chips.  You can use as many or as few as you like.  I typically use about 1/2 cup.  

Divide mixture equally between each pie crust.

Use the remaining 8 oz. of Cool Whip to "frost" each pie.

Decorate the top of each pie with chocolate flavored syrup.  You can create a pretty pattern by swirling the chocolate syrup in a circular fashion from the center of the pie and working outward.  Next, using a pointed kitchen knife, lightly pull the syrup to create "stripes".  Continue using your knife to pull the syrup in different directions, alternating upward and downward strokes until you reach the following result. 

Chill for atleast 2 hours, serve, and enjoy!

  

Happy Snacking!
