Step 1: Whip the Creamy Peanut Butter Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
Gradually fold in powdered sugar, creamy peanut butter, and vanilla extract.
Gently fold in whipped cream until the mixture becomes light and airy.
Make sure all ingredients are fully blended for a silky, decadent filling.
Step 2: Prepare the Crunchy Cookie Crust
Crush Nutter Butter cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
Mix the cookie crumbs with melted butter until they hold together when pressed.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish, creating an even layer.
Refrigerate the crust for about 15 minutes to set.
Step 3: Layer the Peanut Butter Filling
Carefully spread the whipped peanut butter mixture evenly over the chilled cookie crust.
Use a spatula to create smooth, gentle peaks.
Ensure the filling reaches all edges of the pie dish for a consistent texture.
Step 4: Chill and Set the Pie
Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
This allows the filling to firm up and the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Step 5: Create the Whipped Cream Topping
Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
Pipe or spread the whipped cream on top of the chilled pie.
Step 6: Final Garnish and Decoration
Sprinkle additional crushed Nutter Butter cookies over the whipped cream.
Drizzle melted chocolate or peanut butter sauce in a decorative pattern.
Add a few whole Nutter Butter cookies on top for extra crunch and visual appeal.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy

Slice with a sharp knife and serve chilled.
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
