Ingredients:
1 pie crust (9 inch), pre-baked and cooled
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup milk
Whipped cream, for topping
Chopped peanuts, for garnish
Directions:
1. Prepare Peanut Butter Mixture: In a mixing bowl, blend peanut butter and powdered sugar until the mixture becomes crumbly. This forms the flavorful base of your filling.
2. Whip the Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. This will give your pie filling a light and fluffy texture.
3. Cream Cheese Mixture: In a third bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the milk and beat until well combined. This creamy base gives the pie a luscious, smooth texture.
4. Combine the Mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Then, stir in the peanut butter mixture, creating a smooth and rich filling.
5. Fill the Pie Crust: Spoon the peanut butter filling into the pre-baked pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even surface.
6. Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm.
7. Serve: Before serving, top the pie with a generous amount of whipped cream and sprinkle with chopped peanuts for an extra crunch.
