Ingredients
  

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup powdered sugar

1 cup heavy whipping cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup chocolate chips (optional for topping)

¼ cup chopped peanuts (optional for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.

    Make the Peanut Butter Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Mix well until smooth and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully combined and fluffy.

      Assemble the Pie: Spoon the peanut butter filling into the cooled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. If desired, sprinkle chocolate chips over the top for added flavor and texture.

        Chill: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the filling to set.

          Serve: Before serving, you can sprinkle chopped peanuts on top for extra crunch. Slice the pie and enjoy this rich, creamy delight with family and friends!
