Peanut Butter Pie

This creamy and rich Peanut Butter Pie is a no-bake dessert that combines smooth peanut butter with a crunchy cookie crust, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
  2. Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until combined.
  5. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated.
  7. Pour the filling into the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  8. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
  9. Before serving, garnish with chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings if desired.

Notes

For a lighter texture, substitute half the heavy cream with whipped topping or use a chocolate cookie crust for extra richness.
