The Richest Peanut Butter Chocolate Pie


  • Author: Kylie Thomas

Description

Bite into a creamy, dense peanut butter filling beneath a layer of chocolate ganache.


Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 8-ounce package of cream cheese, thawed
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 9-inch graham cracker crust, premade
  • Chocolate ganache
  • Container of whipped topping
  • 6 Reese’s cups for topping
  • Chocolate shavings 

For the chocolate ganache:

  1. 1 4-ounce semi-sweet chocolate bar (we recommend using Baker’s chocolate)
  2. ½ cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions

  1. Mix creamy peanut butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar until well combined. The texture should be almost like a playdoh consistency.
  2. Mold filling into the graham cracker pie crust and set in the fridge overnight. 
  3. Add a layer of chocolate ganache on top of the filling and place back in the fridge for an hour. 
  4. Top with a dollop of whipped topping, half a Reese’s cup, and chocolate shavings before serving. 

For the chocolate ganache:

  1. Finely chop the chocolate bar so that you have tiny slivers of chocolate that will easily melt and place in a heat-proof bowl. 
  2. Heat heavy whipping cream on the stove over medium heat till it begins to simmer but don’t let the cream boil. 
  3. Pour the heated heavy whipping cream over the chocolate and let sit for 2 minutes to soften the chocolate. 
  4. Gently mix the two until combined into a smooth consistency. 
  5. Use immediately.
