Ingredients
1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup melted butter
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (8oz) package cream cheese, softened
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1 (12oz) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
¼ cup heavy cream
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch pie dish.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, granulated sugar, and cinnamon. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together the cream cheese, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until smooth.
Fold in the whipped topping until combined.
Spread the filling over the cooled crust.
In a small saucepan, melt the chocolate chips with the heavy cream over low heat.
Stir until smooth.
Pour the chocolate over the peanut butter mousse.
Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
