Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- ½ cup heavy cream
- ¼ cup chopped peanuts
Instructions
- Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar in a bowl until fully combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Chill in the fridge while preparing the filling.

- Pour the chocolate ganache over the peanut butter layer and spread evenly.
- Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top and press gently into the ganache.
- Chill the pie for at least 4 hours before serving for best results.
Notes
- Use regular, full-fat peanut butter for best texture.
- To slice cleanly, dip your knife in hot water and wipe between cuts.
