Ingredients

• 1 piece Pre-made pie crust (deep dish, 9-inch)
• 1 cup Creamy peanut butter
• 0.75 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Brown sugar, packed
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted and slightly cooled
• 3 pieces Large eggs
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
• 0.25 teaspoon Salt
• 0.75 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
• 2 tablespoons Chopped peanuts (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Place the pre-made pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish if not already done, and set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the peanut butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar. Stir until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Step 3

Add melted butter to the peanut butter mixture and stir well until fully incorporated.

Step 4

Whisk in the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next.

Step 5

Mix in the vanilla extract, flour, and salt. Stir until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 6

Gently fold in the chocolate chips, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.

Step 7

Pour the prepared filling into the pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Place the pie on a baking sheet and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is just slightly wobbly (it will set as it cools).

Step 9

Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature, about 2 hours.

Step 10

Once cooled, optionally garnish with whipped cream and chopped peanuts for added texture and flavor.

Step 11

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Southern Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Pie!
