How to Make Peanut Butter Chocolate Freezer Pie
- Prepare a 9-inch pie plate.
- **Make the Crust:**
- Crush 1 ½ cups chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar and ½ cup (1 stick) melted unsalted butter.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie plate.
- Refrigerate or freeze while you prepare the filling.
- **Make the Chocolate Layer:**
- In a small saucepan, heat ¾ cup heavy cream over medium heat until just simmering.
- Remove from heat and stir in 1 ¼ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips until smooth and melted.
- Stir in ½ cup chopped peanuts.
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the chilled crust, spreading evenly.
- Freeze for at least 30 minutes.
- **Make the Peanut Butter Filling:**
- In a large bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Gradually add 1 teaspoon vanilla extract while beating.
- Set aside.
- In a separate bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese with 2 tablespoons granulated sugar until smooth and creamy (about 3-4 minutes).
- Beat in 1 cup creamy peanut butter until well combined.
- Gently fold in the whipped cream until just combined.
- Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the chocolate layer.
- Freeze for at least 2 hours, or until firm.
- **Make the Chocolate Drizzle:**
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt ⅓ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon margarine on high for 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
- Drizzle the melted chocolate over the frozen pie.
- Return the pie to the freezer until ready to serve.
- For best results, remove the pie from the freezer about 15 minutes before slicing to allow it to soften slightly. If you prefer, you can serve it slightly softer by storing it in the refrigerator.
- Store leftovers tightly covered with foil in the freezer for up to 2 weeks.
