Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Crispy rice cereal
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 2 tablespoons Light butter or margarine
- 1 cup Natural creamy peanut butter
- 8 ounces Low-fat cream cheese
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Butterscotch chips
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons Skim milk
- 0.25 teaspoon Sea salt (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie pan with cooking spray or a small amount of butter.
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the honey and light butter or margarine until combined and smooth.
Remove from heat and gently stir in the crispy rice cereal until fully coated. Quickly press the mixture evenly into the prepared pie pan to form the crust. Allow to cool.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the natural creamy peanut butter, low-fat cream cheese, and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract and skim milk to the peanut butter mixture, blending thoroughly until lightly whipped and spreadable.
Spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the cooled crispy crust.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch chips in 15-second intervals, stirring frequently, until smooth. Drizzle the melted butterscotch over the peanut butter filling in a decorative pattern.
Sprinkle with a pinch of sea salt, if desired, for added flavor contrast.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to firm up before slicing and serving.
Serve chilled and enjoy your crispy low-fat peanut butterscotch pie!
