Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by crushing about 24 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor. Mix with 5 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter and press into a greased pie plate. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to set.
  2. While the crust chills, pour 1 cup of cold whipping cream into a mixing bowl and add 1/4 cup of powdered sugar. Whip until stiff peaks form (about 3-5 minutes) and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add 1 cup of creamy peanut butter, 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until just combined.
  5. Spoon the filling into the chilled Oreo crust and top with chopped peanuts and chocolate syrup. Chill for at least 2 hours to set.
  6. Slice and serve your Easy Peanut Butter Pie chilled, optionally garnished with extra whipped cream or fresh fruit.
