Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Peanut butter (creamy)
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 8 ounces Whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
• 2 tablespoons Chocolate syrup (optional, for drizzling)
• 2 tablespoons Salted peanuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Step 2

Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press it firmly. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together using a hand mixer or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture, beating until fully incorporated.

Step 5

Fold in the thawed whipped topping gently, using a spatula, until the filling is light and fluffy.

Step 6

Remove the pie crust from the refrigerator and spoon the filling into the crust, spreading it out evenly.

Step 7

Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the filling to set.

Step 8

Before serving, drizzle the pie with chocolate syrup and sprinkle with chopped salted peanuts for garnish, if desired.

Step 9

Slice the pie, serve chilled, and enjoy!
