Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs or gluten-free sandwich cookies, crushed
- ¼ cup granulated sugar substitute coconut sugar for a richer flavor
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 8 oz cream cheese room temperature
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream cold
- ½ cup powdered sugar sifted
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract Madagascar-grade for best aroma
- 2 oz dark chocolate melted for optional drizzle
- sea salt pinch to balance sweetness
Instructions
- Stir graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Mix in melted butter, press into pan, and chill.
- Beat cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth, then add powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt.
- Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then fold gently into the peanut butter mixture.
- Spoon filling over crust, smooth the top, chill for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt dark chocolate, drizzle over pie, and chill to set.

Notes
For extra crunch, add chopped roasted peanuts. Room-temp cream cheese blends smoother. Using natural peanut butter may require extra powdered sugar for consistency. Wipe knife between cuts for clean slices.
