Creamy Peanut Butter Cup Pie
This smooth, light, and creamy Peanut Butter Cup Pie is a tried-and-true crowd-pleaser. It’s one of my go-to recipes because it’s simple, easy, and always a hit. The recipe yields two pies because let's be honest-one is just never enough. If I’m bringing it to a potluck, having a second pie ensures that everyone gets a second piece... and trust me, everyone will want a second piece. If I'm cooking for less people, you might just be the lucky recipient of a bonus pie on your doorstep. Whether it's a casual gathering or a special occasion, this pie is a little slice of heaven on a plate. It’s not just dessert; it’s love, shared in every bite!
Ingredients
- 2, 6 oz. ready-made graham cracker crusts
- 8 oz. mini peanut butter cups, halved

Filling

- 1½ c. powdered sugar
- 1 c. sour cream
- ¾ c. creamy peanut butter
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract

Instructions
- Beat heavy cream on high until it starts to thicken signfiicantly and forms soft peaks that hold their form when lifting your mixer. Set aside.
- Mix the remaining "filling" ingredients on medium high speed until smooth and creamy.
- Using a spatula, fold the whipped cream into the filling mixture, combining until evenly incorporated.
- Divide the mixture into the pie crusts and top with mini peanut butter cups.
