Peanut Butter Pie
Directions:
To make the crust:
Combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and butter together well. Press into a 9 inch pie plate. Bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes
To make the filling:
Beat the cream cheese and confectioner's sugar together in a bowl until light and fluffy. Beat in 1/4 C heavy cream, peanut butter, and vanilla.
In a separate chilled bowl, beat the 1 1/2 C of chilled heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. Stir 1/3 into the peanut butter mixture. Gently fold in the remaining whipped cream thoroughly. Then fold in the chopped peanut butter cups.
Pour filling into the pre-baked curst and refrigerate overnight. Garnish with more whipped cream and mini peanut butter cups or candies.

This pie is to die for. You will definitely want to make two because it will be gone in a flash. We always have this pie at Thanksgiving and often at Christmas as well. I finally got my hands on the recipe so I could share it with everyone I know.
