Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 ounces Dark chocolate, melted (optional garnish)
• 2 tablespoons Crushed peanuts (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crumb mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie pan, covering the bottom and sides. Use the flat bottom of a measuring cup to press the crumbs firmly. Refrigerate the crust while you make the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Add the peanut butter to the cream cheese mixture and beat until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract together until stiff peaks form.

Step 6

Carefully fold half of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to lighten it. Then gently fold in the remaining whipped cream until no streaks remain.

Step 7

Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set. For best results, chill overnight.

Step 9

Before serving, drizzle the pie with melted dark chocolate and sprinkle with crushed peanuts if desired.

Step 10

Slice and serve cold. Enjoy your rich and creamy peanut butter pie!
