Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup creamy peanut butter

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup whipped cream (plus extra for topping)

¼ cup chopped peanuts (for garnish)

Chocolate shavings or syrup (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.

    Form the Crust: Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

      Make the Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

        Add Peanut Butter and Sugar: Mix in the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is well combined and fluffy.

          Fold in Whipped Cream: Gently fold in the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.

            Fill the Crust: Spoon the peanut butter filling into the chilled graham cracker crust and spread it evenly.

              Chill to Set: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for the best texture.

                Serve: Once set, remove the pie from the fridge. Top with additional whipped cream, a sprinkle of chopped peanuts, and drizzle with chocolate syrup or add chocolate shavings for extra flair.
