Peanut Butter Pie
(found at Tasty Kitchen)
I used lowfat cream cheese and whipped topping and my pie was delish.
1 chocoate graham cracker or cooke pe crust (homemade or store-bought)
8 oz. cream cheese
1 c. peanut butter
1/2 c. granuated sugar
1 tsp. pure vana extract
8 oz. frozen whpped toppng, thawed
whpped cream, chocolate syrup, and grated chocoate; optona garnshes
Wth an eectrc mxer, beat cream cheese and sugar unt smooth. Bend n peanut
butter and vana. Fod n whpped toppng. Spoon mxture nto prepared pe crust.
Refrgerate for at east 4 hours. Garnsh wth whpped cream and chocoate syrup,

Thn Mnt Cooke Trumes
Ingredients:
-1 (9 oz) package of Gr Scout Thn Mnt Cookes (or Keeber Grasshopper cookes)
-1/2 package (4 oz) cream cheese, softened (I used fat free and t worked great)
-1 (12 oz) bag Guttard's Green Mnt Chps (I |ust found these at the grocery store)*
irections:
In a food processor, puse the Thn Mnts a few tmes, and then bend them down
unt they are |ust crumbs. It mght be easer to do ths n two batches (even f you
don't have a food processor, you can st make these. Throw the cookes n a bg
Zpoc bag and start poundng them wth a hammer unt you have a ot of ne
crumbs).
Next, mx the cream cheese and cooke crumbs together n a bow unt we-mxed.
Ro the mxture nto 1 nch sze bas, and pace them on a wax paper covered
bakng sheet. Pace the bakng sheet n the frdge for about 30 mnutes, so the bas
are easer to dp n the chocoate and do not fa apart.
Once the trumes have been n the frdge for a whe, met the green mnt chps n a
mcrowave-safe bow n the mcrowave. Heat the chps for 30 seconds at a tme,
strrng n between each heat burst. Repeat unt the chps are a meted.
Ro each ba n the meted chps unt t s fuy covered. I usuay use two forks to
push the trume around unt t s a covered. Then, usng the two forks, carefuy
pck up the trume and aow the excess mnt chocoate to run oh before pacng
back on the wax paper. Repeat wth a the trumes.
Stck the trumes back n the frdge for a coupe of mnutes or unt the mnt
chocoate s hardened.
If you want to decorate your trumes as I dd, met about 1/2 cup of whte chocoate
chps (or amond bark or whte candy coatng-whatever you want) the same way
that you meted the mnt chps. Spoon the whte chocoate n a sma Zpock bag
and cut a tny bt of one corner oh the bag. Start sma at rst, then f you need,
make the hoe a tte arger. Drzze the whte chocoate over the green trumes.
Pace back n the frdge unt you are ready to devour eat them.
*If you can't nd those green mnt chps, these can be made wth amond bark or
vana candy coatng. It woud aso be cute to set asde sma amount of cooke
crumbs and sprnke them on top of the trumes. Sprnkes aso ook cute on these
too!
