Servings: 1 (9-inch) pie

Ingredients

2 cups vanilla wafer crumbs
1/4 cup firmly packed light brown sugar
1/3 cup melted butter
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons confectioner's sugar
1 (8-ounce) pkg. softened cream cheese
3/4 cup crunchy peanut butter
1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
Garnish grated chocolate
Garnish sweetened whipped cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°.

In a medium bowl, stir together wafer crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter until well combined. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate.

Bake for 8 minutes. Sprinkle chocolate morsels onto hot crust; let stand for 2 minutes. Spread chocolate evenly onto crust.

In a small bowl, beat heavy cream with a mixer at medium speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add confectioners’ sugar, beating until stiff peaks form; refrigerate.

In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and peanut butter with a mixer at medium speed until creamy. Beat in condensed milk until well combined; gently fold in whipped cream. Spread mixture into prepared crust. Cover and refrigerate overnight before serving.

Garnish with chocolate, whipped cream, and strawberries, if desired.
