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 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Whipped cream (optional for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings (optional for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Prepare the crust by mixing the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter in a medium bowl until combined and the crumbs are evenly coated.

Step 2

Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

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

Step 4

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

Step 5

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

Step 6

Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

Step 7

Transfer the peanut butter filling into the chilled pie crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula or spoon.

Step 8

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set completely.

Step 9

Before serving, optionally top the pie with whipped cream, chopped peanuts, or chocolate shavings for garnish.

Step 10

Slice, serve, and enjoy this luscious peanut butter pie!
