🍽️ Step-by-Step Instructions

1️⃣ Prepare the Filling

In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy. Add peanut butter and continue mixing until fully combined and creamy.

2️⃣ Sweeten It Up

Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Beat until light, smooth, and lump-free. The mixture should be thick but silky.

3️⃣ Fold in the Whipped Topping

Gently fold in whipped topping using a spatula. This step gives the pie its signature dreamy, mousse-like texture—light, airy, and melt-in-your-mouth.

4️⃣ Fill the Crust

Spoon the peanut butter filling into the baked pie crust. Smooth the top evenly with a spatula.
