Description

This creamy Peanut Butter Cream Pie combines the smooth richness of cream cheese and peanut butter with a light and fluffy whipped topping, all nestled in a crisp graham cracker crust. Perfect for peanut butter lovers, this no-bake dessert is easy to prepare and is best served chilled, making it a delightful treat for any occasion.

Ingredients

Filling

  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar
  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 6 tablespoons whole milk
  • 1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed

Crust and Topping

  • 1 graham cracker crust (9 inches)
  • 1/4 cup chopped peanuts

Instructions

  1. Beat the cream cheese, peanut butter and sugar: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until fluffy. Add the confectioners’ sugar and peanut butter, and continue beating the mixture until well combined and smooth.
  2. Add the milk: Gradually pour in the whole milk while beating the mixture to ensure it incorporates evenly and becomes well blended.
  3. Fold in the whipped topping: Using a spatula, gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the peanut butter mixture until fully combined and light in texture.
  4. Spoon the filling into the crust: Transfer the peanut butter pie filling into the graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly. Cover the pie and refrigerate overnight to set properly.
  5. Slice and serve: Once chilled and set, sprinkle the chopped peanuts over the top of the pie. Slice and serve immediately. Optionally, decorate individual slices with chocolate drizzle, caramel sauce, whipped cream, or cherries for added flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easier mixing and smoother texture.
  • Thaw the frozen whipped topping completely before folding it into the filling for best results.
  • Refrigerate the pie overnight to allow the filling to firm up and flavors to meld.
  • For extra flair, add toppings like chocolate drizzle or caramel sauce when serving.
  • If you want a crunchier texture, toast the chopped peanuts lightly before sprinkling on top.
