1 1/2 cups chocolate wafer crumbs
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine, melted
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1 cup smooth peanut butter
2 tablespoons soft butter
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup icing sugar (no lumps)
6 ounces bittersweet chocolate (usually imported)
1/2 cup whipping cream
6 miniature peanut butter cups, halved

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Make crust first.
  • In a small bowl, combine crumbs and melted butter and then pat into a 9" pie plate.
  • Bake until firm and solid; 8 minutes.
  • Let cool.
  • Now make filling.
  • In medium-sized bowl, whip cream.
  • Place in fridge until you need it.
  • Now, in a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until fluffy.
  • Next, beat in peanut butter, then butter and vanilla.
  • Beat in icing sugar until nice and fluffy.
  • Retrieve whipping cream from fridge.
  • Fold about one-quarter of the cream into mixture to lighten it up, then fold in remainder of cream.
  • Use a light hand-- but you don't want any streaks of cream to show either.
  • Fill baked crust with peanut butter mixture.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until it firms up, about 3 hours.
  • To make chocolate ganache topping, finely chop chocolate bar (you can substitute 6 squares of semisweet bakers chocolate) and place in a small bowl.
  • In a small pot, heat cream just until bubbles form.
  • Pour over chocolate and stir until chocolate melts.
  • Let cool, then spread over pie.
  • Take the 12 miniature-peanut-butter-cup halves and arrange them evenly around the edge of the pie.
  • I tilt them so the inside shows.
  • Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving; I always make this a day ahead.

Tips:
