Peanut Butter-Chocolate Pie image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 3h50m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the pie plate
9 whole graham crackers (1 sleeve), roughly broken
1/4 cup cocktail peanuts
1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
1/4 cup cold heavy cream
1 cup creamy peanut butter (not natural)
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1/3 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
Shaved chocolate, for topping

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-inch pie plate. Pulse the graham crackers and peanuts in a food processor until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse to combine. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the side of the prepared pie plate. Bake until set, 10 to 12 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool.
  • Meanwhile, put the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave at 50 percent power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth. Spread evenly in the prepared crust with a small offset spatula or the back of a spoon; set aside until the chocolate sets, about 10 minutes.
  • Make the filling: Beat the heavy cream in a bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form; refrigerate until ready to use. In another bowl, beat the peanut butter, cream cheese, milk and vanilla on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the confectioners' sugar and mix on low speed until incorporated.
  • Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until combined, then fold in the rest. Spoon into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set, at least 3 hours or overnight. Top with shaved chocolate before serving.

INCREDIBLE CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER PIE



Incredible Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie image

Provided by Food Network

Time 2h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

Vegetable oil, for brushing pie plate
1 3/4 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
1/4 cup unsalted roasted peanuts, chopped
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
2 1/2 cups whole milk
3 large egg yolks
3/4 cup crunchy peanut butter
2 ounces semisweet chocolate, chopped
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 cup chopped unsalted roasted peanuts

Steps:

  • To make the nutty wafer crust, preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly oil a 9-inch deep dish pie plate. In a medium bowl, stir together the cookie crumbs, peanuts and butter until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie plate. Bake the crust for 8 to 10 minutes, or until set. Cool on a wire rack.
  • To make the chocolate-peanut butter filling, in a medium saucepan, stir together the sugar and the cornstarch until well combined. Gradually whisk in the milk and egg yolks until smooth. Place over medium heat and bring to a gentle boil, whisking constantly. Continue to whisk for another minute, or until the mixture is thick. Remove from the heat and whisk in the peanut butter.
  • In a small bowl, combine 1 cup of the hot peanut butter mixture with the chopped chocolate and stir until the chocolate in melted, scrape the mixture into the baked crust. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface, and chill for 1 hour, or until set. Transfer the remaining peanut butter mixture to a medium bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill for 45 minutes, or until cool but not set.
  • In a medium bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat the cream until soft peaks form. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the cream into the cooled peanut butter mixture. Remove the plastic wrap from the pie. Scrape the mixture onto the chocolate filling and, using a small offset metal spatula, smooth into an even layer. Chill for 1 hour, or until set.
  • To make the whipped cream topping, in an electric mixer, using the whisk attachment or beaters, beat the cream on medium-low speed for 30 seconds. Increase the speed to medium-high and add the sugar. Beat until the cream forms soft peaks. Using a rubber spatula, pile the whipped cream evenly over the pie filling. Use the spatula to swirl the cream attractively over the pie. Sprinkle the peanuts over the cream. Chill the pie before serving.
