How to Make Peanut Butter Fudge Pie

  1. Prepare your pie crust. (Use a store-bought or homemade crust, 9-inch).
  2. In a medium bowl, beat 8 ounces of cream cheese until light and fluffy.
  3. Add 1 cup creamy peanut butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar. Mix until well combined.
  4. Gradually add 1/4 cup milk while mixing until smooth and creamy.
  5. Gently fold in 2-4 ounces whipped topping (cool whip). Set aside.
  6. In a separate bowl, prepare your fudge topping. (Use your favorite recipe or a store-bought option, aiming for about 1 cup). Spread the fudge evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie crust.
  7. Pour the peanut butter mixture into the fudge-lined crust.
  8. Freeze for at least 2-3 hours, or until firm.
  9. Once firm, spread the remaining whipped topping (2-4 ounces) over the pie.
  10. Sprinkle generously with chocolate chips (1/4 cup mini chocolate chips recommended).
  11. Cover the pie and return it to the freezer for at least 30 minutes to allow the topping to set.
  12. Before serving, thaw the pie in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or at room temperature for about 1 hour, to allow it to soften.
