Instructions:
- Step 1: Prepare the Crust - In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Nutter Butter cookies with melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Place the crust in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
- Step 2: Make the Filling - In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth using an electric mixer. Add the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar, mixing until fully combined.
- Step 3: Whip the Cream - In a separate bowl, beat 1 cup of heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until no streaks remain.
- Step 4: Fill the Crust - Pour the creamy filling into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Return the pie to the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Step 5: Prepare the Topping - Before serving, whip the remaining 3 tablespoons of heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Spread this whipped cream over the top of the pie.
- Step 6: Garnish and Serve - Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top of the whipped cream for an extra crunch. Slice, serve, and watch as everyone indulges in this delightful No-Bake Peanut Butter Lovers Pie!
Notes
- Store the pie in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
- Make the pie up to 2 days in advance for convenient prep.
- For longer storage, freeze the pie wrapped tightly for up to a month.
