This No-Bake Peanut Butter Pie with Chocolate Whipped Cream is a creamy, decadent dessert that combines the rich flavors of peanut butter and chocolate without needing to turn on the oven.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 pre-made graham cracker crust (9-inch)

Filling

  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (for folding into filling)

Chocolate Whipped Cream Topping

  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream (remaining heavy cream)
  • 2 tbsp cocoa powder
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (used partially in filling and partially in topping as needed)
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Place the pre-made graham cracker crust on a pie dish and press down gently to ensure it is evenly packed. Chill the crust in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.
  2. Make the Peanut Butter Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and uniform. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and continue beating until fully incorporated and creamy.
  3. Whip and Fold Heavy Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold half of this whipped cream into the peanut butter and cream cheese mixture to lighten the filling while maintaining a fluffy texture.
  4. Fill the Crust: Pour the peanut butter filling into the chilled graham cracker crust and spread it evenly. Return the pie to the refrigerator to chill further while preparing the chocolate whipped cream topping.
  5. Prepare the Chocolate Whipped Cream Topping: Beat the remaining heavy cream with the cocoa powder and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. This creates a rich and chocolatey whipped cream. Spread this topping evenly over the settled peanut butter filling.
  6. Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the pie for at least two hours to allow it to fully set. This ensures the flavors meld perfectly and the pie slices cleanly. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is well softened for a smooth filling.
  • Be careful not to overwhip the heavy cream to avoid butter formation.
  • The chocolate chips can be melted and drizzled over the top as an optional garnish for added texture and flavor.
  • This pie must be kept refrigerated and is best consumed within 2-3 days.
  • For a crunchy contrast, sprinkle chopped peanuts on top before chilling.
