Ingredients
  

For the brownie crust
  • 1 box brownie mix
For the peanut butter filling
  • 1 pkg. 4-serving size Jell-O Vanilla Instant Pudding
  • 1.5 cups cold milk Use room temperature milk for best results.
  • 0.5 cup smooth peanut butter (divided) Reserve 1/3 cup for the filling and 2 tablespoons for drizzling.
  • 1 cup Cool Whip Whipped Topping Can substitute with a dairy-free alternative.
  • Nuts of your choosing (optional) Consider adding to filling or as a topping.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Prepare the brownie batter according to the package directions.
  2. Pour the brownie mix into a 9-inch pie plate that’s been sprayed with cooking spray.
  3. Bake for 25 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Allow the brownie to cool completely.
  4. Once cooled, scoop out the center of the brownie, leaving a 1/2-inch-thick rim around the edge and a thin layer on the bottom. Reserve the brownie pieces you scoop out.
  5. In a bowl, beat the pudding mix and cold milk with a whisk for 2 minutes until thickened. Then, stir in 1/3 cup of peanut butter until well combined.
  6. Fold in the Cool Whip gently until mixed.
  7. Spoon the peanut butter pudding mixture into the brownie crust, topping with the reserved brownie pieces.
  8. Microwave the remaining peanut butter in a microwave-safe bowl on HIGH for 1 minute, stirring until smooth. Drizzle over the pie.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until the pie is firm.
  10. For an extra touch, drizzle hot fudge along with the peanut butter and sprinkle with chopped nuts if desired.
