- Cool Pie Crust – While preparing the peanut butter pie filling, place the pie crust in the refrigerator or freezer.
- Allow the pie to set before serving – Make sure that the pie is fully set when chilling before slicing. The pie will be easy to cut into nice clean slices if completely set.
- Room Temperature Ingredients – Allow ingredients to soften to avoid lumps in your pie filling. It will blend together much easier.
- Combine Ingredients – When combining the peanut butter ingredients with the heavy cream, do not overmix. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
