How to Make Peanut Butter Pie
- Prepare the crust: Use a store-bought crust or press a homemade one into a pie dish. Chill while you make the filling.
- Make the filling: Beat together peanut butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth. Gently fold in whipped topping until fully combined.
- Fill and chill: Pour the mixture into the crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Add toppings and serve: Drizzle with chocolate, sprinkle with chopped peanuts, or go all-out with mini candy pieces.
Tips for the Best Peanut Butter Pie
- Use full-fat cream cheese and whipped topping for the creamiest texture.
- Let it chill completely before slicing for cleaner cuts and a firm, mousse-like filling.
- Use natural or regular peanut butter, but avoid the super oily kind, which can affect the texture.
