Jimmy Carter dedicated his life to public service and was deeply involved in humanitarian efforts even after his time in the Oval Office. Originally from Georgia, he also took pride in his humble Southern roots and loved the classic Southern foods he grew up with. As a former peanut farmer and "father of the peanut industry" (he lived many lives in the decade he was alive!), peanuts were what Carter lived, breathed and loved to eat. One of his favorite recipes made by his wife and former First Lady Rosalynn Carter was her peanut butter pie.

Tips for Making Jimmy Carter's Peanut Butter Pie
Use what you have. I used unsweetened creamy peanut butter to balance the sweetness, but JIF or Skippy would work just as well here. For the whipped cream, I went homemade to control the sugar level, though Cool Whip or canned whipped cream would also work. Whip it good. Make sure to whip everything up for longer than you think you need to. The more light and airy the cream cheese and sugar mixture is, the better texture your pie will have.Related: Rosalynn Carter's Strawberry Cake Has a Surprising Vintage Ingredient
