Birthday pies

When we arrived at the kids' house, Josh fixed fajitas for supper.  Then we had gift giving for Josh's birthday and for Allen's.   Similar candy card like I gave Sid, Al's younger brother, although a few different candies.



Al got a flannel shirt
 and a new back pack for his next trip to Israel.
 We tend to like pies for birthdays rather than cakes.  A toll house pie from the Bread Basket is Al's favorite.  Josh likes Reece's peanut butter pie and he usually gets that on his day.  Recipe below.
 Before bedtime, Al played the Wii with the kids.
 Emeri knocked her grandpa out in a boxing match.
 Reeces pie recipe (makes 2):

Mix 3.9 oz instant chocolate pudding recipe using pie filling instructions.
Spread on the bottoms of 2 graham cracker pie shells.  Refrigerate.

Next layer:
1 package 8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 T. butter, soft
1 t. vanilla
Mix all together.  Fold in approximately 2 cups of Cool Whip or 1 cup heavy cream that has been whipped with 1 T. sugar.
Divide in half and put each half on top of the chocolate layers of the two pies.

Top with more Cool Whip.  Top with broken pieces of Reece's peanut butter cups.  Drizzle with melted chocolate chips.

Whenever I take this someplace, it goes FAST!  It is delicious!!
