One of my favorite desserts from my childhood is Nanny's Peanut Butter Cream Pie. It's nothing fancy but the consistency and peanut butter flavor are mesmerizing.
Seriously, drag your finger through a slice of that pie and you'll know exactly what I mean by that!
I've been on a cream pie DIP kick lately (check out the Key Lime Pie Dip too!) so I knew I had to make Nanny's pie into a dip so I could drag anything I wanted through that filling!
You may be thinking, Mandy, why would I want to take a perfectly good pie recipe and turn it into a dip?
I may have questioned that once upon a time too but, now that I've made a few, I'm addicted to the concept!
Here are some ideas that may sway you!
HOW, WHEN & WHERE TO SERVE CREAM PIE DIPS
- Make a sweet charcuterie board
- Add to any dessert table
- Bring to any potluck or cookout
- Serve at kids' parties
- Fondue-style with skewers
- On the couch, alone
WHAT TO SERVE WITH PEANUT BUTTER CREAM PIE DIP
- ANY cookies (aren't these chocolate animal crackers precious?!)
- Squares of chocolate
- Marshmallows
- Fresh fruit (apples and bananas are my favs!)
- Freeze-dried fruit slices
- Cake cubes (think bakery or frozen pound cake - vanilla, chocolate or marbled!)

Recipe for Peanut Butter Cream Pie Dip
Peanut Butter Cream Pie Dip
An easy recipe for a decadent peanut butter cream dip that's rich and creamy and perfect for dipping cookies and fruit.
Ingredients
- 1 8-oz block cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1 14-oz can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 8-oz carton cool whip, thawed
- Cookies for dipping
Instructions
- Whip cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. 8-oz cream cheese
- Add sweetened condensed milk, peanut butter and powdered sugar then mix until well combined. 1 can condensed milk, 1 c. peanut butter, 1 c. powdered sugar
- Add half of cool whip then mix until smooth.
- Fold in remaining cool whip then mix until just combined.
- Spoon mixture into a serving bowl then refrigerate 4-6 hours or overnight.
- Serve with cookies.
Notes
- I've never made this with crunchy peanut butter but I imagine it would work just fine.
- Use traditional peanut butter. Homemade and other nut butters are too thin to work with this recipe.
- See serving suggestions above recipe card.
I'm going to serve it with all of the above AND APPLE SLICES, that way I can say it's a fruit dip and very very healthy. HAHAHAHAHA
