A simple, no-bake peanut butter pie with a creamy filling and a chocolate crust. This recipe is easy to make and perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (9 inch) pre-made chocolate cookie crust
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • Optional toppings: chocolate syrup, chopped peanuts, Reese’s Pieces

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, softened cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth.
  2. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until just combined.
  4. Pour the peanut butter mixture into the prepared chocolate cookie crust.
  5. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
  7. Before serving, add your desired toppings.

Notes

  • For a graham cracker crust, mix 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs with 1/4 cup melted butter and 2 tablespoons sugar. Press into a 9-inch pie plate and chill for 10 minutes before filling.
  • You can substitute Cool Whip with homemade whipped cream for a richer flavor. Whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  • Chill time is crucial for clean slices. If you are short on time, you can place the pie in the freezer for 1-2 hours.
  • For a healthier, high-protein version, you can experiment with Greek yogurt or protein powder, but this will alter the texture and flavor.
  • A 9-inch pie typically yields 8 servings. Calories per slice are estimated to be around 350-400, depending on ingredients and toppings.
  • This recipe is a great base for meal planning, offering a satisfying dessert option.
