Ingredients

Servings
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter (see note 1)
  • 4 ounces cream cheese softened (see note 2)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces whipped topping thawed (see note 3)
  • 1 Graham Cracker Crust (see note 4)
  • Whipped Cream for serving, optional
  • chocolate syrup for serving, optional
  • chopped peanuts for serving, optional

Instructions

  1. In a stand mixer fit with the paddle attachment, or with an electric hand mixer, beat peanut butter and cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar in 3 batches, beating after each until combined and smooth.
  2. Fold in whipped topping by hand and pour into graham cracker crust. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. Serve with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and chopped peanuts if desired.

Notes

  • Creamy peanut butter: Store-bought, any brand, or homemade peanut butter if you're feeling ambitious. Yes, almond, cashew, sunflower seed or other alternative butters work here, too!
  • Cream cheese: Full-fat or Neufchâtel. You'll need 4 ounces, or half of an 8-ounce "brick."
  • Whipped topping and whipped cream: Yes, both! For the best no-bake pie texture, I swear by mixing whipped topping (AKA Cool Whip) into the pie filling. Then whisk up homemade whipped cream or buy a can or carton of whipped cream for garnish. 
  • Graham cracker crust: Again, the choice is yours between homemade graham cracker crust or purchased; chances are slim that anyone would notice the difference.
  • Yield: My no-bake Peanut Butter Pie recipe makes a full pie, which I usually cut into 8 generous slices.
  • Storage: Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • Make ahead: This easy dessert recipe is actually designed to be assembled ahead. Make this Peanut Butter Pie at least 2 hours before you plan to serve, and up to 3 days in advance.
