Are you and your best friend chocolate lovers? Then this pie might just be the one for you (if you also like cherries!). By combining a bittersweet dark chocolate with dark cherries, it creates a delicious balance in flavour that isn’t too icky sweet, but also isn’t too bitter. It’s a perfect way to get both of your chocolate fixes, without the guilt or sweetness overload of eating an entire pie together!

When it comes down to how perfectly matched this combination is, peaches and raspberries are the fruit combination to salt and pepper. The juicy peaches provide the majority of flavour in this pie, but with the added raspberries it gives a nice balance of slight tartness that really makes this recipe worth making with your bestie.

I mean really, if we’re compiling a list of sweets that were meant to be together, then we can’t leave out the classic peanut butter and chocolate combination!

Why not add a little boozy fun to the mix and turn a regular pie into the perfect addition to a girl’s night in! Pecan pie on its own is a pretty potently delicious pie, but adding a little (or a lot!) of bourbon to the mix not only brings out even more flavour, but it adds a nice smoky taste to the pie as well.

They say three’s a crowd, but there’s nothing crowded about this pie. The combination may not seem like something that you would put into a pie, let alone add all together, but when baked as one the flavour speaks for itself with how well it works. And hey, maybe you have more than one best friend! So, this is a perfect pie to bake with all your best friends!

Another perfectly boozed up pie recipe, just waiting to be made and shamelessly devoured for a bestie get together. Banana cream pie can stand on its own as a favoured and delicious pie, but add a splash of rum and it just gets better! You can even try out different rums, either spiced or double up on the banana flavour and go for banana rum. Or maybe this is the perfect time for a tipsy bake off to find the perfect combination!
