Peanut Butter Pie

Peanut Butter Pie
Servings: 6

Ingredients

  • 1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • 1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons pure vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  2. In a bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter; press into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake until brown, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool completely.
  3. With a heavy-duty stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, whisk the cream at high speed until it forms stiff peaks. Transfer to a large clean bowl and set aside.
  4. Fit the stand mixer with the paddle attachment and a clean bowl; add the cream cheese, peanut butter, brown sugar, and vanilla and beat at high speed until the mixture is smooth and silky.
  5. Gently fold the cream cheese-peanut butter mixture into the whipped cream with a spatula until completely blended. Spoon into the cooled pie shell and smooth out the top. Place the pie in the freezer for 1 hour or until ready to serve (if you are going to leave it in the freezer awhile, wrap it in plastic wrap after 1 hour so it doesn't get freezer burn).
  6. Take the pie out of the freezer 15 minutes before serving. Slice it and pig out!
