Ingredients
Crust:
- 1 1/4 /4 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 3 tablespoons light brown sugar packed
- 1/3 /3 cup unsalted butter 5 1/3 tablespoons, melted
- 1/2 /2 cup peanuts chopped, honey-roasted
Peanut Butter Filling:
- 3/4 /4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 3/4 /4 cup peanut butter creamy
- 6 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream divided
Whipped Cream Layer:
- 3/4 /4 cup heavy cream
- 2 Tablespoons confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and grease 9-inch pie plate.
- For the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter. Pour crumbs into prepared plate. Using bottom of dry measuring cup, press crumbs into bottom and up sides of plate. Bake until crust is fragrant and beginning to brown, 10-12 minutes, rotating plate halfway through baking. Let crust cool completely and spread 1/3 cup peanuts evenly over bottom of cooled crust. Reserve the remaining peanuts for topping.
- For the Peanut Butter Filling: Using stand mixer fitted with whisk, mix 3/4 cup confectioners’ sugar, peanut butter, cream cheese, and 3 tablespoons cream on low speed until combined. Increase speed to medium-high and whip until fluffy, about 1 minute. Transfer to large bowl and set aside.
- In now-empty mixer bowl, whip remaining 3/4 cup cream on medium-low speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase speed to high and whip until stiff peaks form. Gently fold whipped cream into peanut butter mixture until no white streaks remain. Spoon filling into crust and spread into even layer.
- Whipped cream Layer: In the empty mixer bowl, whip cream, 2 tablespoons confectioners’ sugar, and vanilla on medium-low speed until foamy, about 1 minute. Increase speed to high and whip until stiff peaks form. Spread whipped cream evenly over filling. Refrigerate until set, about 2 hours. Sprinkle with remaining peanuts. Slice and serve.
