Ingredients

• For the Crust
• 1 Duncan Hine's chocolate fudge cake mix
• 1 egg
• 3 egg yolks
• 1 tbsp butter
• For the filling
• 1 (4 oz) package instant chocolate pudding
• 1 pint whipping cream
• 1/4 cup peanut butter (add more to taste)
• 2-3 tbsp powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• hot fudge sauce

Preparation

Step 1

Make the pie shell
1. In a mixing bowl beat cake mix, egg, egg yolks and butter together until a dough is formed.
2. Divide dough into two equal parts. Roll each out on a piece of parchment paper, then press into two 9" round pie pans. Let chill for 1 hr.
3. Bake at 350 for 18-25 minutes (don't over cook)

For the filling
1. Prepare the pudding according to package directions, whisking in 3 cups cold milk. Place pudding in the fridge to set up.
2. Beat whipping cream until slightly thickened but not quite soft peaks. Whip in peanut butter, powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form.

Fill the pie
1. Once the shells have baked and cooled, divide chocolate pudding between two pie shells. Spread peanut butter whipped cream over the top of each.
2. Drizzle with hot fudge. Chill for another hour before serving. Store in fridge, covered.
