Peanut Butter Pie ...Don’t Be Afraid To Try!
Restaurant Dessert Recipe


The younger restaurant customers I serve tell me this Peanut Butter Pie “really rocks.”
Since they clean their plates, I know this means they really like it. ☺


The restaurant dessert recipe results in a deliciously light
dessert. It is not heavy or heavy tasting. Don’t be afraid to
try it! It is “Heavenly Tasting.”
