VIDEO RECIPE: Fluffernutter Pie
A Fluffernutter is a sandwich made with peanut butter and marshmallow crème, usually served on white bread. In this recipe Alejandra Ramos shows Caroline Wright how to turn this childhood favorite into a dessert pie. Using a homemade graham cracker crust as the base, Alejandra fills it with a Peanut Butter & Co Smooth Operator and marshmallow crème filling mixed together with a homemade whipped cream creating a light, airy dessert. Garnished with marshmallows, chopped peanuts, and mini chocolate chips this pie looks like a classic, retro dessert!

Ingredients
For the crust
15 plain graham crackers
7 tbsp. unsalted butter, melted and cooled
1/4 cup granulated white sugar
Pinch kosher salt
For the filling
1 cup heavy cream
1 (8 ounce) package full-fat cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup confectioner’s sugar
1 cup Peanut Butter & Co Smooth Operator
1 cup Marshmallow Fluff®
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
For the garnish
1/2 mini marshmallows
1/4 cup roasted salted peanuts, chopped
1/4 cup mini chocolate chips
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F.
Crush graham crackers in food processor. Transfer to a bowl and add melted butter, sugar, and salt. With a spoon mix it up until fine and crumbly like wet sand.
Pour graham cracker mix into a 9-inch pie plate and press firmly into bottom and up sides. Bake 12-15 minutes, or until edges darken. Let cool completely.
Beat heavy cream with a mixer or by hand until stiff peaks form, and set aside.
In the base of a mixer, combine the cream cheese, confectioner’s sugar, 1 cup peanut butter, Fluff, and salt, and beat until light, creamy, and evenly combined.
Use a rubber spatula to gently fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is very light.
Scoop in the Fluffernutter filling, spreading evenly in the pie dish. Cover with plastic wrap and chill until set, at least 2 hours.
Just before serving, sprinkle the edges of the pie with mini marshmallows, chopped peanuts, and mini chocolate chips.
