  • 1 cup Heavy Whipping Cream Plant-based alternatives work as a vegan option.

  • 2 cups Semi-sweet Chocolate Chips Dark chocolate can add a deeper flavor.
  • 0.5 cup Heavy Cream Half-and-half can be a quick substitute.

Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat together the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and softened cream cheese using an electric mixer for 3–4 minutes until smooth.
  2. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, which takes about 2–3 minutes.
  3. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to maintain airiness.
  4. Pour the peanut butter filling into the pre-baked pie crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
  5. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips and heavy cream. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted and smooth.
  6. Carefully pour the ganache over the peanut butter filling, spreading it evenly.
  7. Decorate with assorted Reese's candies on top of the ganache.
  8. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours until set.
