Ingredients

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

½ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (for garnish)

¼ cup chopped peanuts (for garnish)

Instructions

Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until the mixture is well combined and free of lumps.

Whip the Cream: In another bowl, use a separate clean electric mixer to whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter and cream cheese mixture using a spatula. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream; you want to maintain the light, airy texture.

Combine: Once the whipped cream is fully incorporated, pour the filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Cover the pie with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set.

Garnish and Serve: Once the pie has set, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the pie. Sprinkle chopped peanuts around the edges for added texture and flavor. Slice and serve chilled.
