Peanut Butter Cookie Pie





INGREDIENTS:
1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick), melted
1 large egg
1 cup light brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
heaping 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup all-purpose flour
pinch salt, optional and to taste
12 to 14 mini peanut butter cups
about 2/3 cup Peanut Butter M&Ms (I used one 2.83-ounce 'King Size' bag sold; optionally substitute with Peanut or Plain M&Ms)
DIRECTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9-inch pie dish with floured cooking spray; set aside.
  2. In a large, microwave-safe bowl melt the butter, about 1 minute on high power.
  3. Wait momentarily before adding the egg so you don't scramble it. Add the egg, brown sugar, peanut butter, vanilla, and whisk until smooth.
  4. Add the flour, optional salt, and stir until just combined; don't overmix.
  5. Turn batter out into prepared pie dish, smoothing the top lightly with a spatula.
  6. Evenly insert the peanut butter cups into the batter, pushing them down so the top is almost flush with the surface of the dough.
  7. Evenly insert the M&Ms into the batter, pushing them down to anchor.
  8. Bake for about 28 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out mostly clean, or with a few moist crumbs, but no batter.  If your pie has risen in the center, it will deflate as it cools. Allow pie to cool in pan for at least 30 minutes before slicing and serving; however, for optimal results, cool overnight because it gives the flavors a chance to marry and the pie to really set up fully. Pie will keep airtight at room temperature for up to 1 week, or in the freezer for up to 6 months (color may leech from the M&Ms if you freeze it).

YOUNG LIVING VITALITY LINE

Cooking and baking with essential oils is not only delicious it is ECONOMICAL. Because that 1 tiny drop provides a TON of flavor, but let’s talk about WHY we use essential oils for cooking or baking instead of the herbs from a garden or the grocery store. It all comes down to  FREQUENCY . Every cell in your body, every single living thing, has a vibrational frequency. When we consume things that have frequency, we can increase our body’s frequency, which increases our health. – Healthy human body frequency:      62+ MHz – Illness starts at 57-60 MHz – Our bodies are receptive to cancer at 42 MHz – Death begins at 25 MHz – Essential oils have frequencies, which can raise our bodies’ frequency. Dry herbs have a frequency   of 12-23 MHz. Fresh herbs go up to 20-27 MHz, which is awesome. Fresh is the way to go! Now – get this: Essential oils have a frequency between 52-320 MHz!  This means that even the lowest frequency oil is still ...
