Recipe for easy toasted peanut butter pie is sweet, creamy, and very delicious.
When I say that my easy peanut butter recipe is EASY, I mean it's easy. I speak easily! This is my pie recipe for carry-out and holiday events because you can quickly make it using a store that buys graham crackers and some simple ingredients.
Furtherore, this easy peanut butter pie tastes just rich and creamy as those fancy slices of peanut butter pie that you pay five dollars a piece for at your favorite restaurant!
Peanut Butter Pie Ingredients
- 1 9-inch graham cracker pie crust
- 1 package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 container whipped topping, thawed
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 tablespoon peanut butter
I'm basically obsessed with this peanut butter cream pie. This is my personal favorite pie right now because of its cloud-like texture.
You can make your own graham crackers if you wish, but I like having a selection of dessert recipes that are easily put together and put into store-bought crust. This is a good choice if you need to make a few pies to take to an event or if you will have a large crowd to eat special holiday food.
I also make a version of this easy recipe that has an OREO cookie crust which is really good as well. If you’re a fan of chocolate, don’t miss my chocolate peanut butter pie recipe.
That’s part of what makes this easy pie so great. There are really a number of ways you can make this recipe your own by swapping out some of the ingredients.
You can garnish the top of your pie with the peanut butter crumbles that I used here (get the instructions below), with chocolate curls, chocolate chips or even crushed graham crackers.
I think these peanut butter crumbles are really pretty so I usually tend to garnish the top of my pie with them.
There is no Bake Peanut Butter Pie
This was originally an Amish peanut butter recipe that I got from the Amish recipe book. I've made a number of changes over the years, but you really can't go wrong with that classic Amish dessert recipe. There are a number of peanut butter pie recipes out there, but I hope you will try this one. The taste and texture of the pie is perfect in my book.
