Recipe Inspiration
I love no-bake dessert recipes. I've shared a number of no-bake pie recipes and even no bake cheesecake recipe with you over the years.
I love easy no bake pudding pie recipes also.
Jell-O pudding pies are such a classic dessert recipe. It's fun to come up with new pie recipe ideas based on Jell-O Pudding flavors and this No-Bake Peanut Butter Caramel Cheesecake Pie recipe was going to be a pudding pie until I tasted the homemade crock pot caramel I made.
Once I tasted the crock pot caramel I knew I had to come up with a dessert recipe using it. It is so thick and creamy. It doesn't run and drip like store bought caramel does.
I knew that the crock pot caramel would make the perfect filling for this peanut butter cheesecake.
It would also make an awesome cupcake filling.
Favorite No Bake Dessert Recipe!
Hands down this is my favorite no bake dessert recipe I have ever made. I had to get this peanut butter cheesecake pie out of my house.
I ended up taking two big slices of pie over to my sons house.
Only because I ate most of the pie myself and if I didn't get rid of it I would have eaten the last two slices.
Bad, bad mama! I seriously lost my self control with this one.

Sounds pretty easy, and totally delicious. I love no bake desserts. First, sometimes I don't even have the time to bake. Second, when I take a dessert like this to someone's house...and that person doesn't like to cook, they even get excited, thinking they can make this too.
