Ingredients 📋📝
For the Chocolate Cookie Crust:
1 ½ cups chocolate cookie crumbs (Oreos work great)
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Peanut Butter Filling:
1 cup creamy peanut butter
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup whipped cream, thawed and divided
For the Chocolate Ganache:
1 cup heavy cream
8 ounces semisweet chocolate chips
For the Topping:
Chopped peanuts
Chocolate shavings
Instructions:
Prepare the crust: Combine cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press firmly into a 9-inch pie dish. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
Make the peanut butter filling: Beat together peanut butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth. Gently fold in 3 cups of whipped cream.
Assemble the pie: Pour the peanut butter filling into the prepared crust. Smooth the top.
Make the chocolate ganache: Heat heavy cream until simmering. Remove from heat and add chocolate chips. Let stand for 5 minutes, then stir until smooth. Let cool slightly before pouring over the peanut butter filling.
Decorate: Dollop the remaining whipped cream on top and sprinkle with chopped peanuts and chocolate shavings.
Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
Tips:
For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips for the ganache.
For extra texture, add chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups to the peanut butter filling.
You can also add a layer of chocolate cake or brownies to the bottom for a more decadent dessert.
