Method

Crust Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined and the mixture resembles wet sand.

  2. 2

    Form the Crust

    Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Ensure it is evenly distributed. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from oven and let cool completely.

Filling Preparation

  1. 3

    Mix the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add the peanut butter, powdered sugar, whipped topping, and vanilla extract. Beat until fully combined and creamy.

  2. 4

    Fill the Crust

    Spoon the filling into the cooled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top for a nice finish.

Chill and Serve

  1. 5

    Chill the Pie

    Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight to allow the flavors to meld.

  2. 6

    Serve

    Before serving, drizzle with chocolate syrup and sprinkle with chopped peanuts if desired. Slice and enjoy your delicious peanut butter pie!
