These mini peanut butter pies pair wonderfully with a cold glass of milk or a steamy cup of coffee. If you’re serving them at a gathering, consider adding a fresh fruit salad or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. The lightness of the fruit or the creaminess of the ice cream complements the richness of the pies beautifully.
Servings: 12 mini pies

Variations & Tips
For a crunchy variation, consider adding some chopped peanuts on top of the pies before refrigerating. If you prefer a chocolate twist, you can mix in some mini chocolate chips into the peanut butter mixture. For a festive touch during holidays, add a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of red and green sprinkles. These pies are versatile and can be adjusted to fit any occasion.
