I've made this several times and absolutely love it! I particularly love the slight texture difference between the peanut butter and chocolate fillings. I used to make it for special occasions, but now I make it for anytime and it never lasts long!

I made this for the office and although everyone seemed to like it, I thought it was salty for some reason.

I always bring desserts when I get together with friends and have made lots of things from the Kraft website but this was by far the best! I veganized it since one of our friends is a vegan and everyone LOVED this. I actually thought there was going to be a fight over the last piece. I even had friends ask me to make this for their upcoming wedding to serve along with the wedding cake. I was concerned when the chocolate layers didn't spread well over the first PB layer but you couldn't tell once it was frozen and cut.

FABULOUS! I made this twice (one package of Nutter Butters is enough cookies for 2 recipes): the first time, I made it exactly as instructed. It turned out a bit too rich for me and didn't have quite enough crust, so the 2nd time I used light cream cheese to cut the richness, and I added 4 more Nutter Butters and 1 T more butter to the crust - it was PERFECT! I also crumble a couple of extra cookies on top and melt one more square of Baker's chocolate to drizzle on top, for added crunch texture. It LOOKS way harder than it really is - you'll impress everyone and be asked for the recipe!

The whole family thought this was "the bomb". Easy to make and was compared to our favorite pie at a local restaurant. Our home made version won!

I made this for a small dinner party, and it got rave reviews. I did not use any low or reduced fat products, and it WAS very rich - I may consider some lower fat substitutions next time to cut the richness (I know - I never thought anything could be too rich either). Very easy to make. This will definitely be a go-to dessert recipe for me.
