Ingredients
Scale
For the crust:
- 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
For the filling:
- 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, brown sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Freeze while you prepare the filling.
- Whip the cream: Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set it aside in the refrigerator.
- Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar, then mix in the peanut butter and vanilla until fully combined.
- Fold and assemble: Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. Stir in the mini chocolate chips until evenly distributed. Pour the filling into the prepared crust.
- Freeze: Place the pie in the freezer for at least 4 hours until firm. When ready to serve, let the pie thaw for 20 minutes for an ice cream-like texture, or longer in the fridge for a softer consistency.
Notes
- If the pie crust sticks to the dish, dip the bottom of the pie plate in warm water for a few seconds to loosen it.
- You can add toppings like melted chocolate or crushed peanuts for an extra touch.
- For a variation, swap out the graham cracker crust with a chocolate or Oreo cookie crust.
