8 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1⅔ cup Graham cracker crumbs
¾ cup Unsalted butter; melted
3 ounces Cream cheese; softened
cup Powdered sugar
¼ cup Milk
1 cup Smooth peanut butter
¼ cup Sugar
2 teaspoons Vanilla
cup Whipping cream; chilled
¼ cup Chopped unsalted peanuts

Directions

SHELL

FILLING

This is a creamy, rich, peanut butter pie that all peanut butter lovers would die for! It's soft, like cheese cake, yet has the crunch of peanuts in each bite. SHELL: In a food processor combine the shell ingredients and mix well. Press into a 9" pie plate. Bake at 425 degrees for 9 minutes.

Set aside.

FILLING: Beat the cream cheese and sugar till light and fluffy. Beat in milk, peanut butter and vanilla. In a chilled bowl, beat the cream until it holds stiff peaks. Fold in ⅓ of the cream into the peanut butter mixture. When mixed, add the rest of the cream, and gently fold in till completely mixed.

Turn the filling into the baked shell, and sprinkle with the chopped nuts. Chill covered, for at least 4 hours, up to overnight.

NOTE** If you want chocolate on it, melt Toll House bits and drizzle over the top in a pretty pattern.
