Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for crust)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed (or equivalent homemade whipped cream)
  • Optional topping: Chocolate syrup or mini peanut butter cups

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar in a medium bowl. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the peanut butter and beat until fully combined.
  3. Gradually pour in the sweetened condensed milk while mixing on low speed. Add the vanilla extract and mix until the filling is smooth and creamy.
  4. Gently fold in half of the thawed whipped topping until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Spoon the peanut butter filling evenly into the chilled graham cracker crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Spread the remaining half of the whipped topping over the filling. If desired, drizzle with chocolate syrup or sprinkle with chopped peanut butter cups.
  7. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the filling is firm.
  8. Slice and serve your easy peanut butter pie.

Notes

  • For a richer chocolate flavor, use chocolate graham crackers or crushed Oreo cookies for the crust instead of plain graham crackers.
  • If you use homemade whipped cream instead of frozen whipped topping, make sure it is stiffly whipped before folding it into the filling.
  • This pie tastes best when served cold directly from the refrigerator.
