Description

A rich and creamy no-bake dessert featuring a chocolate cookie crust filled with a smooth peanut butter and cream cheese filling, topped with chocolate ganache and peanut butter cups.


Ingredients

  • 200 g chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
  • 100 g unsalted butter, melted
  • 225 g cream cheese, softened
  • 240 g creamy peanut butter
  • 120 g powdered sugar
  • 240 ml heavy whipping cream
  • 120 g semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 120 ml heavy cream (for ganache)
  • 100 g mini peanut butter cups, chopped


Instructions

  1. Mix the crushed chocolate cookies with melted butter until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Chill for 15 minutes.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add peanut butter and powdered sugar, and mix until creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks, then gently fold it into the peanut butter mixture.
  4. Spread the filling evenly into the chilled crust and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  5. Heat the remaining heavy cream until just simmering, then pour over the chocolate chips. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth to make ganache.
  6. Pour the ganache over the pie and sprinkle with chopped peanut butter cups.
  7. Chill for another hour before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cream cheese for best texture.
  • The pie can be made a day in advance.
