Description

Indulge in the creamy, nutty goodness of this classic Amish Peanut Butter Cream Pie. A luscious blend of creamy peanut butter filling nestled in a flaky pie crust, topped with a cloud of whipped cream and a sprinkle of chopped peanuts.


Ingredients

Scale

Pie Crust:

  • 1 (9-inch) pie crust, pre-baked and cooled

Peanut Butter Filling:

  • ¾ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

For Topping:

  • Whipped cream
  • Chopped peanuts, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Make the Peanut Butter Crumbs

    In a small mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Use a fork to mix until crumbly. Set aside half for the topping and half for layering.

  2. Prepare the Cream Filling

    In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add milk and vanilla extract and beat until fully combined and creamy.

  3. Whip the Cream

    In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream using a mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Mix until completely blended and fluffy.

  4. Assemble the Pie

    Sprinkle half of the peanut butter crumb mixture into the bottom of your cooled, pre-baked pie crust. Pour the cream filling over the crumbs and spread evenly. Top with the remaining peanut butter crumbs, gently pressing them into the surface.

  5. Chill to Set

    Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until firm and set. Overnight chilling works best for perfect slices.

  6. Garnish and Serve

    Before serving, add whipped cream and a handful of chopped peanuts for extra texture and visual appeal.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can use crunchy peanut butter for added texture in the filling.
  • Feel free to drizzle chocolate sauce over the pie for a decadent twist.
