Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 sheets Graham crackers
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Peanut butter (creamy)
- 2 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1.5 cups Chocolate chips (semi-sweet)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
Instructions
In a medium-sized bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until fully combined and creamy.
Add the peanut butter to the cream cheese mixture and beat until smooth and fluffy. Set aside.
In a separate large bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated. Set aside.
Line the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish with a single layer of graham crackers, breaking them as needed to fit.
Spread 1/3 of the peanut butter mixture evenly over the graham cracker layer.
Add another layer of graham crackers on top of the peanut butter mixture, followed by another 1/3 of the peanut butter mixture. Repeat this process one more time, finishing with the last 1/3 of the peanut butter mixture on top.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the chocolate chips and butter. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
Allow the melted chocolate to cool for 1-2 minutes, then drizzle it evenly over the top layer of the dessert. Use a spatula to spread the chocolate if you prefer an even coating.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to allow the layers to set.
When ready to serve, slice into squares or rectangles and enjoy!
