Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup Chocolate shaving or peanut butter cups (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and look like wet sand.
Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or glass to compact the crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the mixture. Continue to beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
In a separate, chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture in three batches, taking care not to deflate the whipped cream. Mix until no streaks remain.
Pour the filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set completely.
Before serving, optionally garnish the pie with chocolate shavings, chopped peanut butter cups, or both for an extra-decadent touch.
Slice the pie with a clean, sharp knife and serve chilled. Enjoy your mile high peanut butter pie!
