Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Chocolate cookie crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup Peanut butter (creamy)
- 1 cup Powdered sugar
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1 cup Whipped cream (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate shavings (optional)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix until evenly coated.
Press the mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form a crust. Use the back of a spoon or measuring cup to press it firmly. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until well incorporated.
In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of the heavy whipping cream using an electric mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until smooth and fluffy.
Spread the peanut butter filling evenly into the chilled crust.
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the semi-sweet chocolate chips and 1/2 cup of heavy whipping cream. Microwave in 20-second increments, stirring after each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth.
Let the chocolate mixture cool slightly, then pour it over the peanut butter filling, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Once set, top the pie with whipped cream and, if desired, chocolate shavings before serving.
