Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup powdered sugar

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

8 oz cream cheese, softened

½ cup chocolate chips (for garnish)

Chopped peanuts (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes. Let it cool completely.

    Make the Peanut Butter Mixture: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined and creamy.

      Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until medium peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until well combined.

        Assemble the Pie: Spoon the peanut butter filling into the cooled graham cracker crust. Spread it evenly and smooth out the top.

          Chill: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results, allowing the flavors to meld and the filling to set.

            Serve: Before serving, sprinkle the top with chocolate chips and chopped peanuts for garnish. Slice into wedges and enjoy this delicious treat!
