OLD-FASHIONED PEANUT BUTTER PIE



Old-Fashioned Peanut Butter Pie image

An old-fashioned peanut butter pie is a classic (and easy) Southern dessert!

Provided by Blair Lonergan

Categories     Dessert

Time 6h50m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups vanilla wafer cookie crumbs ((I use 60 whole Nilla wafer cookies))
6 tablespoons salted butter, melted and cooled
¼ cup sugar
1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter
1 (8 ounce) block cream cheese, softened at room temperature
1 cup confectioners' sugar, sifted
2 cups heavy whipping cream
Optional garnish: chopped peanuts; whipped cream

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400° F.
  • In a bowl, combine cookie crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Pat the mixture onto the bottom and sides of a buttered 9-inch pie plate. I use the flat bottom of a small measuring cup to press the crumbs in an even layer.
  • Bake the shell in the 400° F oven for 10 minutes, transfer it to a rack, and let cool completely.
  • Once the crust is completely cool, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the peanut butter and cream cheese on medium speed until combined. Add confectioners' sugar, beat to combine. Add cream; mix on low speed until combined. Increase mixer to high speed; beat just until the mixture thickens (be careful not to overbeat).
  • Spread the filling in the pie crust. Cover and refrigerate until firm; at least 4 hours or overnight.
  • Garnish with chopped peanuts and whipped cream just before serving.
