Step-by-Step Instructions
To start off, I take my mixing bowl and cream together the softened cream cheese and peanut butter using my electric mixer. It’s essential that the cream cheese is softened; otherwise, you’ll end up with lumps that can make your pie less creamy than you’d like. Once those two ingredients are smooth and creamy, I love the smell that wafts up—it’s truly divine. Next, I add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until everything is well combined. The mixture should be silky and smooth at this point—like a heavenly cloud of peanut butter goodness! (See the next page below to continue steps…)
