PEANUT-CASHEW MARSHMALLOW PIE
This pie appeals to kids and adults, and the chocolate crust and caramel topping make it all the more special. I like the nice contrast of the creamy mallow filling and the crunchy peanuts. An added bonus is that this pie can be made ahead of time. -Lisa Varner, El Paso, Texas

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Make the crust: Pulse the graham crackers and granulated sugar in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse a few times until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch pie plate, making a thicker rim around the edge. Bake until the top edge is firm and the bottom is dry, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
- Make the filling: Melt the butter and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl and let cool 5 minutes. Whisk in the granulated sugar, eggs, vanilla and salt until smooth. Whisk in the flour until combined.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust. Bake until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, 30 to 35 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool completely.
- Make the topping: Combine the heavy cream, marshmallow cream and confectioners' sugar in a food processor and pulse, scraping down the processor, until the mixture is thick. Spoon the topping onto the center of the pie. Top with shaved chocolate.

CHEWY PEANUT BUTTER-MARSHMALLOW BARS
Classic cereal treats for the peanut butter fanatic, these marshmallow bars call for cornflakes instead of Rice Krispies, making for a wonderfully chewy-crunchy contrast. Cornflakes are delicate, so the key here is to avoid crushing the cereal too much when mixing the ingredients. The end result should be airy and chewy, but not dense, with visible chunks of marshmallow throughout. This recipe comes together quickly, so have your ingredients measured and ready to add to the pot when you begin. Once the chocolate topping has set, these bars pack well for picnics or potlucks, but if you're concerned about the chocolate melting, you can skip it altogether and finish the bars with a sprinkle of sea salt.

Steps:
- Grease a 9-inch square pan with butter and sprinkle 1/2 cup/17 grams of the cornflakes on the bottom of the pan.
- In a large pot, melt the 6 tablespoons/85 grams butter over medium-low heat. Add the marshmallows and kosher salt, and cook, stirring often, until about half of the marshmallows have melted but the mixture is not completely smooth. Add the peanut butter and mix until just combined, keeping some lumps of marshmallow.
- Take the pan off the heat, and working quickly, add about half the remaining 5½ cups cornflakes, folding them into the marshmallow mixture as gently as possible to avoid crushing the cereal. Repeat with the remaining cornflakes. If the mixture becomes too sticky to work with, briefly return the pot to the heat on low.
- Working quickly, transfer the mixture to the prepared pan, using a wet spoon or spatula to spread and pat into an even layer, again being careful to avoid crushing or packing the cereal.
- Place the chocolate in a small heatproof bowl and microwave it in 15-second intervals, stirring between intervals, until melted and smooth. Drizzle the chocolate over the bars in overlapping lines. (If using chocolate chips, scatter the chips onto the surface of the bars while they are still warm and let sit for 5 minutes, allowing the heat of the cornflakes to melt the chocolate before dragging a fork or toothpick through it to create lines.) Sprinkle the bars lightly with flaky sea salt, and set aside at room temperature (in a cool spot, if possible) until completely set, about 2 hours.
- Cut into bars and serve. Bars will keep, wrapped well at room temperature, for up to 3 days.

Steps:
- In a mixing bowl, combine pudding and peanut butter; stir until smooth. Fold in whipped topping; stir until completely blended.
- Pour filling into pie crust. Freeze pie until firm. Partially thaw in refrigerator, for about 2 hours or so, before serving. You can store leftovers in the refrigerator or freezer. Leftover pie sometimes gets a little soft in the refrigerator, and doesn't hold its shape. It still tastes good, though. If you want perfect looking slices after you make the first incision, store in freezer and thaw as needed.

Steps:
- Make crust:
- In food processor, pulse flour and salt until combined. Add butter and pulse just until mixture resembles coarse meal with some small (roughly pea-size) butter lumps. Drizzle 3 tablespoons ice water evenly over mixture and pulse or gently stir with fork until incorporated.
- Squeeze small handful of dough: If it doesn't hold together, add more ice water 1/2 tablespoon at a time, pulsing or stirring until incorporated. Do not overwork dough, or pastry will be tough.
- Turn dough out onto lightly floured work surface, gather into ball, and flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill until firm, about 1 hour. (Dough can be made ahead and frozen up to 1 week. Defrost in refrigerator before proceeding.)
- On lightly floured surface, roll out dough to 12-inch round, then transfer to pie pan. Trim edge, leaving 1/2-inch overhang, then fold overhang under and crimp edge decoratively. Prick bottom and side of shell all over with fork, then chill shell 30 minutes. (Shell can be assembled to this point ahead: Wrap entire pan well in plastic wrap and refrigerate up to 2 days, or freeze up to 1 week. Defrost in refrigerator before continuing.)
- While shell chills, preheat oven to 425°F.
- Line shell with foil and fill with pie weights or dried beans, then bake until pastry is set and pale golden on rim, about 15 minutes. Carefully remove foil and weights and bake shell until pale golden all over, 5 to 7 minutes more. Cool on rack.
- Make filling and bake pie:
- In medium saucepan over moderately high heat, simmer maple syrup, uncovered, until reduced to 3/4 cup, about 10 minutes. Carefully whisk in butter (mixture may splatter), then sugar and salt. Remove from heat and let cool to warm room temperature.
- In medium bowl, whisk together eggs and brandy. Whisk egg mixture into cooled maple syrup mixture.
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Spread chopped chocolate in even layer over bottom of prepared crust. Sprinkle nuts in second even layer, then pour filling over nuts. Bake until filling is puffed and center is just set, 45 to 60 minutes. Cool in pan on rack. (Pie can be made up to 1 day ahead. Let cool, then cover loosely and store at room temperature.)
- To serve:
- Using electric mixer, beat crème fraîche until it holds soft peaks. Serve with pie.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your pie.
- Be sure to toast the peanuts and cashews. This will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Don't overcook the marshmallows. You want them to be soft and gooey, not hard and chewy.
- Let the pie chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set properly.
- Serve the pie with whipped cream or ice cream. This will add a delicious finishing touch.
