- 1/2 cup crunchy peanut butter
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 4 cups heavy cream, whipped until thick
- 1 graham cracker pie shell
- 1/2 cup chocolate shavings and curls (or chocolate chips)

- Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese with the confectioners'
- sugar until creamy. Add the peanut butter and milk; beat well. Fold half
- the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture and spoon mixture into the
- pie shell, smoothing the top. Refrigerate at least one hour, until set.
