Step 2: Whip the Cream
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip, as this can cause the cream to become grainy.
Step 3: Combine Mixtures
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until just combined. Be sure to maintain some air from the whipped cream to ensure a lighter filling.
Step 4: Fill the Crusts
- Spoon the peanut butter filling evenly into the mini graham cracker crusts.
- Use a spatula to smooth out the tops of each pie.
Step 5: Refrigerate
- Refrigerate the pies for at least 2 hours, or until the filling is set.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
- When ready to serve, garnish with chocolate shavings or mini peanut butter cups, if desired.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
