Once chilled, slice and enjoy this creamy, indulgent treat!
Notes
- For best results, make sure to chill the pie for at least 4 hours to allow the filling to set and firm up.
- You can make this pie the day before you plan to serve it, as the flavors improve after sitting overnight.
- If you prefer a smoother filling, you can blend the cream cheese and peanut butter mixture in a food processor to make it even creamier.
- Feel free to sprinkle extra chopped peanuts or chocolate chips on top for added texture and flavor.
- This pie is very rich, so small slices go a long way!
