Instructions

Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to cream together the peanut butter, room temperature cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth and well combined. Slowly add in the milk and continue mixing until you achieve a creamy consistency with no lumps.
Fill the Pie Crust: Pour the prepared peanut butter mixture evenly into your chosen 9-inch graham cracker or Oreo pie crust. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to make the filling level and smooth out the top.
Add the Topping: Spread the thawed Cool Whip evenly over the peanut butter filling using a rubber spatula. If desired, sprinkle chopped roasted peanuts on top for added texture and flavor.
Freeze the Pie: Place the pie in the freezer for at least 3 hours to allow it to firm up properly. For easier slicing and serving, remove the pie from the freezer about 10 minutes before you plan to serve.

Notes

For best results, use room temperature cream cheese to ensure the filling is smooth and creamy.
You can substitute Cool Whip with homemade whipped cream if preferred.
Chopped roasted peanuts are optional but add a lovely crunch and complement the peanut butter flavor.
Keep the pie stored in the freezer and consume within 3 days for optimal freshness.
If you want a stronger peanut butter flavor, consider using natural peanut butter without added sugars or oils.
