Chocolate Crust
- Preheat oven to 350º F.
- Blend chocolate cookies (filling included) in a food processor or blender until they are a fine, sandlike consistency. Add in melted butter and blend until the crumbs start to clump together.
- Using a small measuring cup sprayed with cooking spray, carefully press the crumbs into a pie shell until they cover the base and sides of the pie shell.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
No Bake Peanut Butter Pie
- Beat the cream cheese on medium-high speed for 2-3 minutes until combined.
- Add the powdered sugar and peanut butter and continue to mix for 2-3 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
- Add the cream and mix just until combined.
- Gently add the filling to the crust and smooth out with an offset spatula.
- Place plastic wrap directly on the top of the pie and set in the fridge to chill for at least 6 hours, if not overnight.
Whipped Cream
- Once your pie is well chilled and you are ready to serve it, combine heavy cream and sugar in a medium sized bowl.
- Mix on medium-high with a handheld or stand mixer until somewhat stiff peaks have formed.
Assembly
- Remove the plastic wrap from the pie and if needed use the back of a spoon to gently smooth out the top to remove any lines from the plastic wrap.
- Carefully pile whipped cream on top of the pie and use an offset spatula or spoon to spread it out evenly.
- Top with chopped peanut butter cups. Enjoy!
