Making Pie with me / What's Up with the Leotard

I love baking/cooking! So I decided to make my peanut butter cheesecake! This is my favorite pie! Nothing beats it; except Perkins Strawberry Pie! YUM! So here is my experience! The recipe will be listed after.


These are my ingredients... I was going to make two but... that didn't happen....
The delicious crust! I LOVE GRAHAM CRACKERS!

Then my snapple ran out.....
                                                                             
The peanut butter mixture!

The HOMEMADE whipped cream!

Quite a few days later.......... its was delicious!

Ingredients for the crust:
- 9 whole graham crackers
- 1 tablespoon of brown sugar
- 7 tablespoons of butter, melted

Ingredients for the filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, at room temperature
- 3/4 cup powdered sugar (and 2 tablespoons for the whipped cream)
- 1 cup of creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup of heavy whipping cream(1/2 pint)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat Oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit

For the crust: Smash or food process the graham crackers and sugar until ground fine. Add the melted butter and stir/pulse until moistened. Press mixture into the pie pan(preferably 9 inch) and bake for 12 minutes. Let cool.

For the peanut butter filling: In a large bowl use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese, 3/4 cup powdered sugar, and peanut butter until light and fluffy.

For the whipped cream: In a separate bowl, use an electric mixer with whisk attachment(if possible) to whip the heavy whipping cream until thick and light. Add in the remaining 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue to whip until stiff peaks form.

For the filling its self: Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Pour into the prepared pie shell and freeze for 3 hours. Once freezer time is up store in fridge for a little over a week covered. Optional- drizzle with caramel and/or chocolate and Reeces Cups.

Okay, so what is up with that leotard?!?!?!?!?!?! I'm going to be taking ballet! We (mom, sara, and I) found them at walmart and figured we would pick it up for the price! I can't wait to start ballet! We seen a recital last night and it was SUPER COOL! The girls(and guys) in it did amazing! Emmett LOVED the tap dancers! I was actually interested in doing ballet 3 or 4 years ago but we never did it. Sara's friend, Megan, actually brought it back up this year because she is in the class we are interested in and she was helping out with a free, mini class at our local library! Sara and I both attended, and we both loved it...... even though we kinda sucked..... #NoFlexibility

Hope you enjoyed! Thanks for reading!
