Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups crushed chocolate cookies
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream

Directions

  1. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed chocolate cookies and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until well combined.
  4. Pour the peanut butter filling over the cookie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
  5. In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream until steaming. Remove from heat and add the semisweet chocolate chips. Let sit for 5 minutes, then whisk until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
  6. Pour the chocolate ganache evenly over the chilled pie, covering the peanut butter filling completely.
  7. Return the pie to the refrigerator and chill for an additional hour, or until the ganache is set.
  8. Serve chilled and enjoy the pure indulgence of Peanut Butter Heaven!
