12tbspbutterdivided
2 16oz.Jars Creamy Peanut Butter
3-31/2CPowdered Sugar
8oz.heavy cream
12oz.bag of Nestle Semi-Sweet Morsels
Instructions
Using a food processor pulse cookies until crumbs.
In a large bowl place cookie crumbs along with 8 oz. of melted butter, mix until combined.
Using a spring foam pan (or any pan really!) place cookie crust mixture in a even layer. Using a glass to pack in the crumbs for a nice uniformed crust.
Place pan into refrigerator for 20 minutes.
While the crust is chillin' mix peanut butter and remaining 4 oz. of tbsp of softened butter until light and fluffy.
Add in ½ c of powdered sugar at a time until you get the consistency you desire. If you want a drier and sweeter filling, add more powdered sugar.
In a large bowl heat up heavy cream for 1 minute in microwave, remove.
Place semi-sweet morsels into the heavy cream and allow the chocolate to melt. It will look funny half way through, but, keep mixing it will thicken and darken up.
Place pan onto flat surface, spoon peanut butter mixture into pie crust and spread evenly. You want to leave crust for the ganache and a little extra, so don't place the peanut butter mixture to the top of the crust.
Pour half the ganache mixture over the top of the peanut butter mixture, spread evenly.
Refrigerator the No Bake Peanut Butter Pie for a minimum of an hour.
