Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are fully coated. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes, then let cool.

  2. 2

    Make the Peanut Butter Mousse

    In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, cream cheese, and powdered sugar until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Pie

    Spread the peanut butter mousse evenly over the cooled chocolate crust. Place in the refrigerator to set for at least 2 hours.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Chocolate Layer

    Melt the milk chocolate in a microwave or double boiler until smooth. Pour over the set peanut butter mousse and spread evenly. Return to the refrigerator for another 30 minutes to set.

  5. 5

    Add Toppings

    Once the chocolate layer is set, drizzle with caramel sauce and melted peanut butter. Top with chopped Reese's Peanut Butter Cups.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Slice the pie and serve chilled. Enjoy your delicious peanut butter pie!
