• Once the crust is completely cool, prepare the filling. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the peanut butter and cream cheese on medium speed until combined. Add confectioners' sugar, beat to combine. Add cream; mix on low speed until combined. Increase mixer to high speed; beat just until the mixture thickens (be careful not to overbeat).
