Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 1 cup Salted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 16 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup Peanut butter, melted
- 1.5 cups Chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream (for chocolate ganache)
- 1 cup Salted peanuts, chopped
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking pan to form the crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the 1 cup of heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust in an even layer.
Drizzle half of the melted peanut butter over the cream cheese layer and use a spatula to make swirls.
Add the remaining cream cheese mixture over the peanut butter layer, smoothing it out evenly.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips and 0.5 cup of heavy cream in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth to form a ganache.
Drizzle the chocolate ganache over the top layer of cream cheese filling.
Sprinkle the chopped peanuts evenly over the top, pressing them gently to stick.
Chill the Drumstick Cake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
Slice and serve chilled!
