Directions: |
Directions:Bake the crusts in 9 in pie plates, let cool completely. In microwave bowl or cup, melt chop chips for 1 minute. Stir and set aside to cool. In a large bowl, beat 3/4 cup ( 1 1/2 sticks) of the butter, and 3/4 cup sugar until fluffy. (takes about 4 1/2 min if butter is cold) Stir in melted and cooled choc chips and 1 tsp vanilla. Gradually beat in 3/4 cup egg substitute or 3 eggs, 1 at a time on high speed, scraping sides of bowl constantly until light and fluffy. Spread 1/2 in each pie shell, place in fridge. Put Nutella n glass measuring cup and microwave 20 seconds. Stir until easy to spread. Put 1/2 of the Nutella on top of each chocolate layer- work quickly!! Return pies to fridge. Melt and cool peanut butter chips as above, set aside. Beat remaining butter and 3/4 cup sugar ( you should have 4 Tbsp sugar remaining after this step) as before (clean beaters first) and add in melted and cooled peanut butter chips and 1 tsp vanilla. Gradually beat in remaining egg beaters or eggs as before- scraping constantly, till light and fluffy. Spread 1/2 on each pie. Return pies to fridge. Chill a mixing bowl and clean beaters for whipping cream (stick in freezer for a few min is fastest) add whipping cream and 4 Tbsp(to taste) sugar to sweeten. Beat on high to desired thickness for whipped cream. Top pies with whipped cream and mini reeses. Can grate additional PB chips and choc chips on top for garnish if desired. |
