In this paper we show that every set $A \subset \mathbb {N}$ with positive density contains $B+C$ for some pair $B,C$ of infinite subsets of $\mathbb {N}$, settling a conjecture of Erd\H os. The proof features two different decompositions of an arbitrary bounded sequence into a structured component and a pseudo-random component. Our methods are quite general, allowing us to prove a version of this conjecture for countable amenable groups.
