Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 9-inch pre-made crust Graham cracker crust
- 8 ounces (softened) Cream cheese
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup (cold) Heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cup (optional) Chopped peanuts or peanut butter cups (for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat the mixture with an electric hand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
In a separate mixing bowl, whip the cold heavy whipping cream and granulated sugar using an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
Fold the whipped cream gently into the peanut butter mixture, using a spatula to ensure it's evenly combined while maintaining the airy texture of the whipped cream.
Spoon the peanut butter filling into the pre-made graham cracker crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 3-4 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.
Optional: Before serving, garnish the pie with chopped peanuts, crumbled peanut butter cups, or an extra drizzle of peanut butter for a decorative and flavorful touch.
Slice the pie into 8 even pieces and serve chilled. Enjoy!
