Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup Peanut butter
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 cups Heavy cream
• 6 ounces Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0.25 cup Mini chocolate chips or chocolate shavings (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Place in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, use a hand or stand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth and creamy.

Step 4

Gradually add the powdered sugar to the peanut butter mixture and mix until fully incorporated.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup of the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until completely combined.

Step 6

Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula and place back in the refrigerator to set.

Step 7

In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the semi-sweet chocolate chips and the remaining 1 cup of heavy cream in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth.

Step 8

Stir the vanilla extract into the melted chocolate mixture and let it cool slightly (about 5 minutes).

Step 9

Pour the chocolate layer over the set peanut butter layer, spreading it evenly to cover.

Step 10

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to fully set.

Step 11

Before serving, garnish with mini chocolate chips or chocolate shavings if desired.

Step 12

Slice the pie and enjoy this decadent dessert!
