There is nothing better or easier than a no-bake pie! This recipe comes from Taste of Home Magazine and one that we really enjoyed! This recipe needs to stay in your freezer for 6 hours before serving… so plan ahead! I took mine out after five hours and it was not quite set up yet but I had some very impatient people ready to eat it! This is one I would certainly make again.
INGREDIENTS
1 1/2 cups cold milk
1 package (3.9 ounce) instant chocolate pudding mix
1 cup, plus 2 Tablespoons, chopped peanut butter cups, divided
1 carton (8 ounce) frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 chocolate crumb crust (8-9 inches)
DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for two minutes and let stand for two minutes or until soft set.
Fold in 1 cup chopped peanut butter cups. Fold in whipped topping. Spoon into crust, cover and freeze for 6 hours or overnight. Remove from freezer 15-20 minutes before serving and garnish with remaining chopped peanut butter cups.
Enjoy!
I could not let this recipe go by with out posting it! I know summer is coming to a close but these little bites are so tasty! You can also make these using blueberry pie filling but don’t even think about taking out the lemon juice or zest as it adds so much flavor and such a brightness to the recipe!!

One of my favorite things to do over the holidays is to dry brine my turkey, so when our good friend Tim came over with this Williams Sonoma Herbes De Provence brine for us to try, I couldn’t wait! Tim said he, and his sweet wife Maureen, have been using it all summer. They like to use the dry brine and roast chicken on the grill using their rotisserie. When he brought this over, I had boneless skinless chicken breasts in the fridge so that is what I used! The directions could not have been more simple. Just add some of the mix to your chicken or turkey, let brine in the fridge for two to four hours, rinse off the brine and cook the meat. We took Tim’s advice and grilled our chicken and let me tell you we were thrilled with the amount of flavor. Absolutely delicious !! This is a product I will definitely be using!! This is a product I know you will enjoy, go ahead and give it a try!
Brine can be purchased online www.williams-sonoma.com or at the Rockingham Mall in Salem, NH or at the Maine Mall in Portland, Maine.
Enjoy!
