Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 premade chocolate cookie crust
Peanut Butter Filling
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Pinch of salt
Chocolate Ganache
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
Garnish
- Extra chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a bowl, mix the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until smooth and creamy to create the peanut butter filling. Set aside.
- Make the Ganache: In a small saucepan, heat the heavy cream over medium heat just until it begins to simmer. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the chocolate chips and unsweetened cocoa powder until fully melted and smooth to make the ganache.
- Assemble the Pie: Spoon the peanut butter filling evenly into the premade chocolate cookie crust. Pour the warm chocolate ganache over the filling and gently swirl it to create a marbled effect.
- Chill: Place the assembled pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until completely set and firm.
- Serve: Once chilled and set, optionally garnish with extra chocolate shavings, slice, and enjoy this rich and creamy dessert.
Notes
- Make sure to use creamy peanut butter for a smoother filling texture.
- Allow the ganache to cool slightly before pouring to prevent melting the filling.
- For a firmer crust, chill the premade chocolate cookie crust before assembling the pie.
- This pie is best served chilled and consumed within 3 days.
- Use high-quality chocolate chips for a richer ganache flavor.
