Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
• 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
• 1 cup creamy peanut butter
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup peanut butter cups, chopped

Instructions

1. Mix chocolate cookie crumbs with melted butter in a bowl. Press the mixture evenly into a pie dish to form a firm crust.
2. In another bowl, combine creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the crust.
3. Heat heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over semisweet chocolate chips in a bowl. Stir until the chocolate is completely dissolved and the ganache is smooth. Pour the ganache over the peanut butter layer in the pie dish.
4. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, allowing it to chill until fully set.
5. Before serving, evenly sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups over the top of the pie.
