Easy Peanut Butter Pie

Ingredients
1-1/3 cups HERSHEY'S MINI KISSES Brand Milk Chocolates, divided (I used chocolate chips)

2 tablespoons milk
1 packaged crumb crust (6 oz.) (ya i was lazy and just bought a choc-crust at HEB)
1 package (8 oz.) Neufchatel cheese (1/3 less fat cream cheese), softened
3/4 cup sugar ( i ran out of white sugar so i used about 1/2 cup white and 1/4 cup brown)
1 cup REESE'S Creamy Peanut Butter (i used low fat)
1 tub (8 oz.) frozen whipped topping, thawed (again lite Cool Whip)

Directions
1. Place 2/3 cup chocolates and milk in small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) 30 to 45 seconds or just until melted and smooth when stirred; spread evenly on bottom of crumb crust. Cover; refrigerate. ( I tried to spread out the chocolate over the edges too)

2. Beat cream cheese in medium bowl until smooth; gradually beat in sugar. Stir in peanut butter and whipped topping until blended; spoon evenly into crust over chocolate mixture. Cover; refrigerate 4 to 6 hours or until set.

3. Just before serving, place remaining 2/3 cup chocolates around edge of filling. Serve cold; cover and refrigerate leftover pie.

8 servings. (shiiiit more like 16-- its so rich!)

This Pie is super yummy but VERYYYYYY rich... and VERRRRYYYY peanut buttery! And even using the low fat options it was still a hit!

Kase and point

Since my last entry i have gone to Phoenix and Mexico for some travel fun. Caught up with the fam in PHX and Tucson.. Good times and small world! Turns out my lil cousin Sara is friends with this guy named Drako or Dracco or Draco- graf names-- who the FUCK knows how to spell them. Anyway- Draco is crew with Supher and the boys... Sara cracks me up.

Sara "Marisa-- in real life i would soooo be yoour friend!"

Me "Sara- this is real life."

Oh how i love my family! Leanna-r was the hostess with the mostess! We have decided (now that i am not a virgin) that we are going to get dia de los muertos tattoos in November when i go to AZ for Analisa and Christina's wedding... Have to get working on the design... I guess it is true what they say-- once you start pop you can stop! I used to just think that applied to virgins and pringles...

Quote of the weekend by Leanna Jones:

"Water is for QUITTERS!"

Next up in April, was off to Mexico with Raquel for a wedding. Stayed in Vallarta Palace in Puerto Vallarta. AMAZING doesn't describe how much i liked it. Of course the steady flow of booze from the cabana boys hurt ;)

<-----the pool!

<-----The view from our room!

<---- Raquel in our private Jacuzzi tub... although we didn't use it. Our room came stocked with bottle of booze-- and I'm not talking about mini bottle-- I'm talking litre bottle! 1st night we ate at the Sushi restaurant at the hotel...

Got pretty loaded on sake bombs... ohhhh boy...

One of the highlights of the weekend was when i was escorted/ by the policia to the "Rerserva" and got to hold baby sea turtles! Yes i know i am a bad ass. Let me just tell you it was a sight to see-- me on with my camera and my signature Caipirinha in hand, in my bikini, riding on the back of a 4 wheeler on the beach with 2 policia. We ride up, they bang on the door, a SHOCKED (i think he was asleep) kid (and when i say kid i mean 19 or 20) opens the door and then police demand he show me the baby turtles. SOOOO cute..

We also swam with the dolphins quite cool-- but didn't want to get my new purple hair wet-- so did the pansy stuff :) The girl dolphin really liked me-- as you can see in the picture her eyes are rolling back in Ecstasy from my touch!
