Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a medium bowl. Mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Press crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate.
  4. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
  5. In a large bowl, beat together sweetened condensed milk, peanut butter, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  6. Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream until just combined. Do not overmix.
  7. Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to set completely.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use salted butter in the crust and reduce the amount of sugar slightly. You can also add a pinch of salt to the filling to balance the sweetness. Top with chocolate shavings or chopped peanuts before serving for added flair.
