You already know that French Silk Pie is crazy good, but did you know that it's insanely simple, too?

A pie that can be made with just 15 minutes prep time? Hard to believe, but heavenly news. And speaking of heavenly, that's possibly the best way to describe this PB&C delight.

Black Raspberry Cream Pie

We love blackberries and we love pie, but making a good old-fashioned double-crust blackberry pie requires two things that we don't always have: an abundance of time and lots of fresh blackberries. That's why we love this luscious no bake pie. It takes just 15 minutes of prep time and uses blackberry preserves, which you can find any time of year.

Whipped Key Lime Pie

The result is a dessert that pushes all the right tart and tingly key-lime-pie buttons, but without the extra step of baking the filling.
