Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3/4 cup rolled oats
3/4 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 cup peanut oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 ounces moonshine
3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

1 pound cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups creamy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup whole milk, at room temperature
2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
