A no-bake creamy peanut butter pie with a graham cracker crust, velvety peanut butter filling, and fluffy whipped cream topping. Perfect for parties and gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped cream (homemade or store-bought)
  • Chopped peanuts or chocolate shavings (optional for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir until evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter together using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the powdered sugar and continue to beat until fully combined.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated.
  4. Assemble the pie: Spoon the peanut butter filling into the chilled crust, spreading it out evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top for a clean finish.
  5. Add the topping: Spread the whipped cream over the peanut butter filling. For a decorative touch, sprinkle chopped peanuts, chocolate shavings, or drizzle melted chocolate on top.
  6. Chill: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the filling to set.

Notes

[‘Let cream cheese soften at room temperature for a silky filling.’, ‘Chill the mixing bowl and whisk for faster whipped cream preparation.’, ‘Overnight chilling ensures perfect slices.’, ‘Add an extra tablespoon of melted butter if the crust feels crumbly.’, ‘Customize toppings with chocolate drizzle, caramel sauce, or crushed pretzels.’]
