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 Powdered sugar
- 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1.5 cups Whipped topping (optional)
- 0.5 cup Chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the peanut butter and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Continue beating until fully combined and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand or stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until well incorporated and smooth.
Spoon the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
If desired, spread whipped topping over the top of the pie for an extra layer of creaminess. Garnish with chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings if preferred.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until firm. For best results, chill overnight before serving.
Slice and serve the pie chilled. Enjoy!
