This Peanut Butter Marshmallow Pie is a lot of things. It is sweet, cold, creamy, and yet also a bit salty and crunchy.

One of the best things about this pie, in my opinion, is that it is nearly no-bake! Just pop the crust into the oven for 10 minutes and then let the freezer do the rest of the work.

This pie was inspired by a candy bar that I impulsively picked up while in World Market a few weeks ago. It was a milk chocolate bar that had peanuts, pretzel pieces, and marshmallow in it. I mean, sure, I was walking around the store while borderline hangry, but that thing was good.

I went home and started to wonder how I could incorporate all of those flavors into a dessert creation of my own. Pie seemed like a good candidate. I thought back to the Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie that I shared with you before and wondered what would happen if you folded marshmallow fluff/creme into the peanut butter filling. As it turns out, delicious things would happen if you did that.

The crust is a little sweet, but mostly salty, and made out of pulverized pretzels, brown sugar, and melted butter. The combination of cold and creamy filling, salty crust, and crunchy toppings (okay there are soft marshmallows, too) is 10/10.

    So, I printed the recipe (old school!) soon after you posted it, but it took me until this month to finally get around to making this pie. I shouldn't have waited so long! My husband said this marshmallow PB pretzel crust pie is his new favorite, surpassing the tasty version of PB pie that I've made for years. Thanks; we're glad you bought that candy bar which inspired this pie!

    I'm still a bit of a nooby and pretzel crusts are new to me, but I'm going to give this a go this weekend for sure. I think I've eaten something similar in a restaurant before, .. I love every ingredient anyway, so I know it's going to be yummy if I don't screw it up. Nice detailed write up , and awesome images by the way - thanks!

    We have a favorite gluten free pretzel that I have bags of at a time in the pantry. They would be perfect for this dessert! Looks so good!
