Ingredients
For the Crust:
24 chocolate sandwich cookies (such as Oreos), crushed
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Peanut Butter Ice Cream Filling:
2 cups creamy peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
8 oz cream cheese, softened
2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold
For the Chocolate Ganache Topping:
4 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
Instructions
- Prepare the crust:
Mix crushed cookies with melted butter until combined. Press mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie plate. Freeze crust for 15 minutes. - Make the peanut butter filling:
Beat peanut butter, powdered sugar, and cream cheese until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold whipped cream into peanut butter mixture until fully combined. - Assemble the pie:
Spread peanut butter filling evenly over the chilled crust. Freeze pie for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm. - Prepare the ganache:
Heat heavy cream in a small saucepan until simmering. Pour over chocolate chips in a bowl, let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth. Let cool slightly. - Finish the pie:
Drizzle ganache over the frozen pie before serving. Slice and enjoy.
Notes
- For easier slicing, let pie thaw for 5-10 minutes before cutting.
- Store leftovers covered in the freezer for up to 1 week.
- Use creamy peanut butter for best texture and flavor.
