Ingredients

Pie Crust

  • 1 9-inch pie crust, baked and cooled

Peanut Butter Crumbles

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup creamy peanut butter

Peanut Butter Filling

  • 1 3.4 ounce box instant Jell-O vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • ½ cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup whipped cream or cool whip, already whipped

Whipped Topping

  • 2 cups whipped cream or 1 8-ounce container cool whip
  • If making whipped cream: 1 cup whipping cream and 3 tablespoons powdered sugar (whipped to make 2 cups)

Instructions

  1. Make Peanut Butter Crumbles: In a medium bowl, use an electric mixer to combine powdered sugar and ¼ cup creamy peanut butter on medium speed. Mix until small peanut butter crumbles form. If too powdery, add a few drops of water to encourage larger crumbles. Press half of the crumbles evenly into the bottom of the baked pie crust.
  2. Prepare Peanut Butter Filling: In a mixing bowl, blend the vanilla instant pudding mix, 1 ½ cups milk, and ½ cup peanut butter using a mixer for 2 minutes until smooth. Gently fold in 1 cup of already whipped cream or cool whip to lighten the mixture.
  3. Assemble Pie Filling: Pour the peanut butter pudding mixture over the crumbles in the pie crust, spreading it evenly.
  4. Add Whipped Cream Topping and Crumbles: Top the pudding layer with 2 cups of whipped cream or cool whip evenly. Sprinkle the remaining peanut butter crumbles on top as a garnish.
  5. Chill Pie: Refrigerate the assembled pie for at least 1 to 2 hours to allow it to set properly before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • For a richer crust, consider using a homemade graham cracker or cookie crust as an alternative to store-bought.
  • If you prefer a firmer filling, let the pie chill overnight.
  • You can substitute cool whip for homemade whipped cream for convenience.
  • Add a pinch of salt to the peanut butter crumbles for enhanced flavor balance if desired.
  • Use creamy peanut butter for smoother texture in both the crumbles and filling.
