Recipe Ingredients
CRUST
FILLING
GLAZE
Directions
For crust: Mix all ingredients in 9-inch round pie pan. Press mixture
firmly into bottom and up sides of pan. Freeze while preparing peanut
butter filling.
For filling: Using electric mixer, beat peanut butter, cream cheese,
1/2 c sugar and melted butter in large bowl. Using clean dry beaters,
beat cream with remaining 1/2 cup sugar and vanilla in medium bowl
until peaks form. Stir 1/4 of cream into peanut butter mixture, then
fold in remaining cream (mixture will be thick). Spoon into prepared
crust. Refrigerate until firm.
For glaze: Bring cream to boil in heavy small saucepan. Reduce heat
to low. Add chocolate and stir until melted and smooth. Cool glaze
slightly; pour over filling. Tilt pan, coating top completely.
Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cut into wedges to serve. Serves 8.
For the success of this recipe, use a creamy-style peanut butter; do
not use an unsweetened freshly ground one.
