Freezer Friday: Peanut Butter Cup Pie

piesmI'm always looking for easy recipes that present themselves as a more laborious dish than they really are.  In the summer, the less time in the oven or at the stove the better.  This fantastic Peanut Butter Cup pie is tweaked from a recipe used at Sonlight Camp, where HandyMan and I have spent some time.  The best part, no oven and no stove necessary!  It is easily made the night (or a week) before and placed in the freezer to "chill out" until it is needed.  The only way it will last a week in the freezer is if it's well hidden or if you're out of town!

To make this for a crowd, I'm going to try putting a graham cracker crust in the bottom of a 9x13 pan and doubling the filling.  Then cutting it into squares once its frozen.  I'll let you know how it turns out.
