Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

An amazingly good chocolate peanut butter pie! Graham cracker crumb crust, filled with a creamy peanut butter filling and topped with chocolate ganache.

INGREDIENTS :

For the crust

• 3/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 4 tablespoons melted butter
• For the filling
• 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
• 8 ounces cream cheese softened
• 3/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1 tablespoon vanilla

For the ganache topping

• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

INSTRUCTIONS :

1. To prepare the crust, blend graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, brown sugar and melted butter in a bowl until fully combined. Press mixture into a 9″ pie plate, covering bottom completely and pushing the crumbs about 1-2 inches up the side of the pie plate. Put the pie crust into the freezer while preparing the filling.
2. Whip the 1 1/2 cups heavy cream until it holds peaks. Set aside in refrigerator while preparing the rest of the filling.
3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar and mix until blended. Add peanut butter and vanilla, mixing well. (Scrape the sides of the bowl as needed to ensure that the ingredients are fully blended.)
4. Fold whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture, blending well. Pour filling into the prepared pie crust. Place filled pie into the freezer.
