Main Ingredients

  • 24 chocolate sandwich cookies finely crushed, about 9 ounces
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup heavy cream cold
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips shaved or finely chopped, for garnish

Instructions
 

Cooking

  • Make crust. Mix the cookie crumbs with the melted butter and press into a 9 inch pie dish.
  • Bake. Bake at 350 degrees F for 10 minutes, then cool completely for about 30 minutes.
  • Mix. Beat the peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Whip and fold. Whip the cream with the vanilla to soft peaks and fold it into the peanut butter in two parts.
  • Chill. Spread into the crust, chill at least 4 hours, and top with the chocolate.

Notes

Substitutions: Use graham cracker crumbs for the cookies, or crunchy peanut butter for extra texture.
Tips: Chill the bowl for the cream and wipe the knife between slices.
Storage: Refrigerate up to 3 days. Do not freeze the finished pie.
