chocolate chips

🥗Healthier: dark chocolate

💰Cheaper: cocoa powder + sugar

Dark chocolate has less sugar and can be healthier.

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: neufchâtel cheese

💰Cheaper: ricotta cheese

Neufchâtel has less fat, while ricotta is often less expensive.

powdered sugar

🥗Healthier: coconut sugar

💰Cheaper: granulated sugar

Coconut sugar is a less processed option.

In a bowl, whip a block of room temperature cream cheese with a hand mixer until fluffy.

Add milk a little at a time, about 1 tablespoon at a time, until the cream cheese is creamy.

Mix in confectioners sugar and pause to scrape down the sides of the bowl to incorporate everything.

Add creamy peanut butter (or chunky for more texture) and mix well.

Fold in 8 to 9 ounces of whipped topping in a couple of batches, taking care to retain the fluffiness.

Spoon the mixture into a 9-inch graham cracker crust pie shell and level out the top.

Cover and refrigerate the pie for a couple of hours or until firm, or freeze if needed.

Decorate the top with finely chopped peanuts, small chocolate chips, chocolate shavings, chocolate or caramel sauce, or candy bar pieces if desired.

Use leftover whipped topping to decorate the rim of the pie with a cake decorating kit.
