Dreamy No-Bake Creamy Peanut Butter Pie Recipe (5 Ingredients) by Rushell Tuggle

There's nothing quite like a slice of homemade pie. We all love our pecan pie and pumpkin pie during the holidays, but why not make room at the dessert table for a new pie recipe you can serve all year-round? This six-ingredient, no-bake peanut butter pie recipe is absolutely dreamy.

To make this no-bake creamy peanut butter pie recipe you will need creamy peanut butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, whipped topping, a pre-made pie crust, hot fudge topping, which is optional, and pecans, which are also optional, but add a wonderful crunch.

Serve this peanut butter pie for dessert after dinner. Make it even more rich and decadent by adding a dollop of whipped cream. If you're a coffee drinker, this no-bake pie goes so well with a hot cup of joe.

Ingredients

• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 12 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed and divided (4 1/2 cups)
• 1 prepared chocolate pie crust or graham cracker pie crust
• 11 ounces (1 jar) hot fudge topping (optional)
• 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)

Recipe Notes

• This dessert recipe works well with or without chocolate (I usually omit the chocolate topping). But you can do it either way and it's delicious.

• Store any leftover pie in an airtight container in the fridge.

Here's how you make it:

1. Beat together the peanut butter, cream cheese and sugar in large bowl with an electric mixer on medium until well combined.
2. Gently fold in 3 cups whipped topping until thoroughly combined. 
3. If desired, spoon the chopped pecans into the bottom of the pie crust.
4. Spoon mixture into pie crust. Using a spatula, smooth mixture to edges of pie.
5. If using chocolate topping, microwave topping on high for 1 minute (or until melted and spreadable). Stir. Spread topping over pie, covering entire peanut butter layer. Refrigerate until set.
6. Spread remaining whipped topping (1 1/2 cups) over hot fudge layer, if desired. Otherwise, serve with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
7. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Garnish with pecans, if desired.
