Prepare the Crust

Fold in Whipped Topping

Assemble the Pie
  1. Spoon the creamy peanut butter filling into the prepared graham cracker crust, smooth the top with a spatula, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Garnish and Serve
  1. Once the pie has set, remove it from the refrigerator and sprinkle chocolate shavings on top. For perfect slices, dip a knife in warm water before cutting.
