Description

This no-bake chocolate peanut butter swirl pie is a creamy, decadent dessert combining a crunchy graham cracker crust with a luscious peanut butter and cream cheese filling, topped with a beautiful swirl of melted chocolate. Perfect for quick preparation without the need for an oven, this pie delivers rich flavors and a smooth texture that is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth.


Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Filling

  • 1 cup peanut butter (creamy or chunky)
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream

Chocolate Swirl

  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 tbsp butter (for the chocolate swirl)


Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust. Place the crust in the refrigerator and chill for 15-20 minutes to set.
  2. Make the peanut butter filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the peanut butter, softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy without any lumps.
  3. Whip the cream: In a separate chilled bowl, beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, taking care not to deflate it, until fully combined and light.
  4. Assemble the pie: Spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust, smoothing the surface with a spatula.
  5. Prepare the chocolate swirl: In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips and butter in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Drizzle this melted chocolate over the surface of the pie in a swirl pattern.
  6. Create the swirl effect: Using a knife or a skewer, gently swirl the melted chocolate into the peanut butter filling to create an attractive marbled effect.
  7. Chill to set: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until the filling is firm and set.
  8. Serve: Once set, serve the pie chilled and enjoy the rich combination of chocolate and peanut butter flavors.

Notes

  • Use creamy or chunky peanut butter depending on your texture preference.
  • For easier whipping, chill the mixing bowl and beaters before whipping the cream.
  • If you prefer a sweeter crust, increase the sugar slightly.
  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps when mixing.
  • The pie can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
