i watched Waitress pie


i went to see the movie "Waitress" today. It was a really fantastic movie and i highly recommend going to see it. It inspired me to want to make a pie and what better pie to make than Isa's "Black Bottom Peanut Butter Silk Pie" from Vegan with a Vengeance. The pie turned out really well - i have always thought that peanut butter and chocolate are the perfect pair. i made a few modifications to the recipe, nothing major though - more crust, less oil and more soymilk in the crust, more agar (mine didn't boil down to 1/3c.) and crunchy peanut butter in the filling, and of course - i used all organic ingredients. i called it - "i don't know what i want to do with my life organic pie".

i will definitely be making this one again. i always try to stick as close as possible to the original recipe the first time i make something. Next time, i think i will make a much thicker crust and pour 1/2 the peanut butter filling directly in the crust, then add the chocolate layer, then the other 1/2 of the peanut butter filling.
