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 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Whipped topping (optional)
- 0.5 cup Chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, using the back of a spoon or the bottom of a glass to compact it into an even layer across the bottom and up the sides.
Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Add the peanut butter to the cream cheese mixture and beat again until fully combined and fluffy.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract together with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Spread the peanut butter filling evenly into the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
If desired, spread a layer of whipped topping over the filling for extra creaminess and garnish with chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
