How to Make Chocolate P Nut Butter Pie Shenanigan's Restaurant Tacoma Wa

  1. Make the Chocolate Cookie Crust:
  2. Crush 1 1/2 cups chocolate sandwich cookies.
  3. Combine crushed cookies, 1/4 cup coarsely ground almonds, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/8 teaspoon mace, 1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg in a medium bowl.
  4. Melt 1/4 cup butter; stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and 1 teaspoon dark rum.
  5. Pour melted butter mixture over cookie crumbs and mix well to combine.
  6. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
  7. Press the cookie crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate.
  8. Refrigerate while you prepare the filling.
  9. Make the Peanut Butter Pie Filling:
  10. In a large bowl, beat 1 cup heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  11. In a separate bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
  12. Gradually beat in 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup creamy peanut butter, and 1 tablespoon melted butter.
  13. Gently fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
  14. Fold in the remaining whipped cream until just combined.
  15. Pour the filling into the prepared chocolate cookie crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  16. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  17. Make the Chocolate Topping:
  18. Combine 4 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, 2 tablespoons butter, and 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler.
  19. Heat gently, stirring frequently, until chocolate is melted and smooth.
  20. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  21. Spread the melted chocolate evenly over the chilled pie, starting from the center and working outwards.
  22. Sprinkle 1/4 cup chopped peanuts over the top.
  23. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
  24. Slice extraordinarily thin—one tiny slice is usually enough!
