Ingredients
For the crust:
• 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• ¼ cup melted butter
• 2 tablespoons sugar
For the filling:
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• ½ cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup whipping cream
For the topping:
• 1 cup whipping cream
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a 9-inch pie plate with butter.
2. To make the crust, combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar in a medium bowl. Mix until the ingredients are evenly distributed. Press the mixture into the pie plate, forming a crust on the bottom and sides. Bake for 8 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown. Allow it to cool completely before adding the filling.
3. To make the filling, beat the peanut butter and powdered sugar in a medium bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in the vanilla extract and cream cheese. In a separate bowl, beat the whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Spread the filling evenly into the cooled crust.
4. To make the topping, beat the whipping cream and sugar in a medium bowl until stiff peaks form. Spread the topping over the filling. Drizzle the peanut butter over the top. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
