Mack Meiner's Peanut Butter Cream Pie
I has this delicious pie when I was a child when my mother and step-father used to take me to a restaurant here in Orlando called Mack Meiner's, which is no longer around.
I am not a huge Peanut Butter Pie fan, but this one is SO delicious that I spent several years searching for this recipe, and Finally a friend of my mother's Patty, messaged me that she had a copy from when the recipe was printed in our local newspaper years earlier. She was nice enough to mail me a copy and the Very 1st time I made it - It was Loved by All!!
INGREDIENTS:
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1 c. powdered sugar
1/3 c. smooth peanut butter
1 (2 1/2oz pkg) whipped topping mix (Dream Whip)
1/2 c. milk
1 9 inch graham cracker crust
1/4 c. peanuts, finely chopped
WHAT TO DO:
-Whip cream cheese with mixer until fluffy.
-Beat in Sugar and Peanut Butter.
-Prepare whipped topping mix with milk according to pkg.
-Gently fold whipped topping into peanut butter mixture.
-Pour into pie shell and smooth out toward edges, as mixture will be thick.
-Sprinkle with chopped peanuts.
-Chill until firm.
-ENJOY!!
The Mack Meiner's peanut butter pie that I remember was made with a custard and meringue.
ReplyDeleteI remember this from when I was a kid in Orlando in the 70s. My mom gave me the card with the recipe on it written by a waitress who worked there at the time. There was never a custard or meringue on this particular pie at this restaurant, but maybe from another place?
DeleteI had this pie many years ago At the Jack Meiners country store in Kansas City ! (1975 ) an the receipt that was printed in the Kansas City paper !
