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 cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cup Heavy cream (for ganache)
- 4 pieces Peanut butter cups (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter until evenly combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to create the crust. Chill in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth and creamy.
Add the powdered sugar, 1/2 cup of heavy cream, and vanilla extract. Beat until fully incorporated and fluffy.
Pour the peanut butter mixture into the chilled crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
In a small saucepan, heat 1/2 cup of heavy cream over low heat until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over the semi-sweet chocolate chips in a bowl.
Let the chocolate and cream sit for 2 minutes, then whisk until smooth to create the ganache.
Pour the ganache over the peanut butter filling, spreading it evenly to cover the top of the pie.
Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely.
Optionally, garnish with chopped peanut butter cups before serving. Slice and enjoy!
