Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Stir in melted butter until evenly moistened.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or glass to ensure an even layer.
- Refrigerate the crust while you make the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat the sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter together until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, beat the cold heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture along with the vanilla extract, until just combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Pour the peanut butter filling over the chilled graham cracker crust and spread evenly.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the pie to set completely.
Notes
For a richer flavor, use salted peanut butter and omit the added sugar in the crust. You can also garnish with chocolate shavings or chopped peanuts before serving.
