Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Mini chocolate chips or shaved chocolate (optional)
- 0.25 cup Chopped peanuts (optional)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until evenly mixed and the crumbs are moistened.
Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together with a hand mixer or stand mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the bowl and beat until fully incorporated and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream on high speed using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture in batches, being careful not to deflate the light texture. Fold until no streaks remain.
Pour the peanut butter filling into the prepared crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Optional: Sprinkle mini chocolate chips, shaved chocolate, or chopped peanuts over the top for decoration.
Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set. For best results, chill overnight.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
