Ingredients
Instructions
- Make the crust. Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until evenly combined. Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill in the fridge for 15-20 minutes.
- Make the filling. Beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until fully combined and creamy.
- Fold in whipped topping. Gently fold in about 3/4 of the whipped topping until light and fluffy.
- Fill the crust. Spread the peanut butter filling evenly into the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Add the final topping. Spread or pipe the remaining whipped topping over the filling. Drizzle generously with chocolate syrup and sprinkle with chopped peanuts, if using.
- Chill. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results, before slicing and serving.
