Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by crushing 24 Oreos in a food processor until they resemble fine crumbs. Melt 5 tablespoons of unsalted butter and mix it with the Oreo crumbs in a bowl until evenly combined. Press this mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a greased pie plate. Refrigerate the crust for 30 minutes to set while you prepare the filling.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, pour in 1 cup of whipping cream and add 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar. Using an electric mixer, beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-5 minutes. Set aside.
  3. In a separate bowl, combine 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, ½ cup of creamy peanut butter, and ½ cup of powdered sugar. Blend with a handheld mixer until smooth, about 2-3 minutes. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture using a spatula. Start by adding a third of the whipped cream, then fold in the remaining whipped cream until fully combined.
  5. Spoon the peanut butter filling into the chilled crust, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle chopped peanuts on top and drizzle chocolate syrup if desired.
  6. Refrigerate the assembled Peanut Butter Pie for at least 2 hours to firm up. Slice and enjoy!
