Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Chocolate graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 8 ounces Whipped topping (thawed)
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips
- 0.25 cup Hot fudge sauce (optional, for drizzling)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chocolate graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press it down tightly. Place the crust in the freezer to set while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the mixture, and beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula until no streaks remain. Be careful not to overmix to ensure the filling stays light and fluffy.
Pour the peanut butter filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Sprinkle the mini chocolate chips evenly over the top of the pie for added texture and flavor.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until firmly set.
Before serving, drizzle the pie with hot fudge sauce (if using), and garnish with chopped peanuts for extra crunch.
Slice and serve immediately. Store leftovers in the freezer, covered tightly, for up to one week.
