🥄 Ingredients:

For the crust:

  • 24 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos) 🍪
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted 🧈

For the filling:

  • 1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter 🥜
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened 🧀
  • 1 cup powdered sugar 🍬
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🍦
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream, whipped 🍶

For the topping:

  • 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips 🍫
  • ½ cup heavy cream 🥛
  • Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped (for garnish) 🍬

🍳 Instructions:

1. Make the Crust:

  • Crush the cookies: Use a food processor or place the cookies in a sealed bag and crush them with a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs 🍪.
  • Mix the crumbs with melted butter: Stir until well combined 🧈.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish 🥧.
  • Refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling to set it up 💪.

2. Make the Filling:

  • Beat the filling: In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy 🍯.
  • Fold in whipped cream: Gently fold in the whipped heavy cream to create a fluffy, light texture 🥄.
  • Spoon the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the top to perfection 🍽️.
  • Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until the filling is firm ⏳.

3. Make the Chocolate Ganache Topping:

  • Heat the cream: In a small saucepan, heat the ½ cup heavy cream over medium heat until it’s just about to simmer 🥛.
  • Pour over the chocolate chips: Remove from heat and pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let it sit for 1-2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy 🍫.
  • Pour the ganache over the chilled peanut butter filling and smooth it out evenly 🍮.

4. Garnish:

  • Top the pie with chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups for that extra indulgent touch 🍬.

5. Chill Again:

  • Refrigerate the pie for another 1-2 hours or until the ganache is set 🕰️. The pie should be cold and ready to slice!
