Serves: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 pre-made chocolate cookie crust
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup chocolate chips, melted
- 1/2 cup Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, chopped
Instructions
- Remove the pre-made chocolate cookie crust from packaging and set aside at room temperature to prepare for filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly using an electric mixer until the mixture becomes smooth and well-incorporated, about 2-3 minutes.
- In a separate clean mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer until stiff peaks form, which typically takes about 3-4 minutes.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, being careful not to deflate the cream. Stir until the mixture is uniform and creamy.
- Spread the peanut butter cream mixture evenly into the chocolate cookie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Melt the chocolate chips using a double boiler or microwave, stirring frequently to ensure a smooth consistency.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the peanut butter filling, creating a decorative pattern.
- Sprinkle the chopped Reese's Peanut Butter Cups over the top of the pie for added texture and flavor.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours or until the filling is set and chilled.
- Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to soften slightly. Slice and serve chilled.
Tips
- For the smoothest peanut butter mixture, ensure your peanut butter is at room temperature before mixing with powdered sugar.
- When whipping cream, use a chilled bowl and beaters to help achieve those perfect stiff peaks faster.
- To get clean, beautiful pie slices, run your knife under hot water and wipe dry before each cut.
- For an extra decadent touch, you can drizzle some additional melted chocolate or caramel on individual slices before serving.
- This pie can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator, which actually helps the flavors meld together even more deliciously.
- If you want a slightly firmer texture, you can freeze the pie for an hour before serving for a more ice cream-like consistency.
