First up, let me show you what you’re in for!

Charlie Brown Pie

Now that we’ve got your attention, let’s dive in. This pie is unique because it’s made with a graham cracker crust that’s just so easy and delicious. Here’s what you’ll need:

Ingredients:

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup chocolate chips (optional, for topping)

Alright, now that we’ve got our ingredients ready to go, let’s break down how to put this bad boy together:

Instructions:

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This crust needs a little sunshine.
  2. In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until it’s all mixed up well.
  3. Press that mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Make sure it’s nice and even; this is gonna be the base of all that goodness.
  4. Bake the crust for about 8-10 minutes until it’s golden brown. Once it’s done, let it cool.
  5. Next, let’s make the filling! In another bowl, mix together the peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth.
  6. In another clean bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold this whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until it’s all blended together.
  7. Pour that lovely filling into your cooled graham cracker crust. Spread it out evenly and smooth the top. Pop it in the fridge for at least 2 hours to set.
  8. For a little extra flair, melt your chocolate chips and drizzle them over the pie right before serving!

And there you have it! A scrumptious Charlie Brown Pie that’s perfect for any occasion. Trust me, once you serve this up, it’s gonna be the talk of the evening! Enjoy and happy baking!
