Instructions:

1. Prepare the Crust:

   • Add the peanut butter, powdered erythritol, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix until well combined.
   • In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks.
   • Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated.
3. Assemble the Pie:
   • Pour the peanut butter filling into the cooled crust and spread evenly.
   • If using, drizzle the melted sugar-free chocolate chips over the top and sprinkle with chopped peanuts.
4. Chill:
   • Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours, or until set.
5. Serve:
   • Slice and enjoy your keto-friendly peanut butter pie!
