Cuisine: American
Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 1/4 cup chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: a pre-made graham cracker crust, creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, whipped cream, and chocolate chips (if using).
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of creamy peanut butter and 1 cup of powdered sugar. Use a hand mixer or a whisk to blend them together until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped cream into the peanut butter and powdered sugar mixture. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream; use a spatula to incorporate it until the filling is light and fluffy.
- If you are using chocolate chips, you can either fold them into the filling or save them to sprinkle on top later for garnish.
- Pour the peanut butter filling into the pre-made graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Once the filling is spread evenly, you can add the chocolate chips on top if you haven’t mixed them in yet. This adds a nice visual touch and extra flavor.
- Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow it to set. While it doesn’t require baking, chilling will help the flavors meld and the texture to firm up.
- After chilling, slice the pie into 8 servings and serve cold. Enjoy your delicious Mos Peanut Butter Pie!
Tips
- Room Temperature Magic: Ensure your peanut butter and whipped cream are at room temperature for smoother mixing.
- Whipping Technique: When folding whipped cream, use a gentle, bottom-to-top motion to maintain its fluffy texture.
- Chill Factor: Let the pie set for at least 1-2 hours for the best flavor and consistency.
- Chocolate Chip Hack: For extra indulgence, drizzle melted chocolate over the top before serving.
- Make-Ahead Friendly: This pie can be prepared a day in advance, making it perfect for parties and gatherings.
- Storage Tip: Keep refrigerated and consume within 3-4 days for optimal freshness.
- Serving Suggestion: Let sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes before serving for the most luxurious texture.
