We celebrated my stepmom's birthday today and I decided that since I had most of the ingredients on hand and she LOVES reese's that I should make her a birthday pie! I found this recipe and decided it simply didn't have enough reese's in it ;) so I added a few more!
- 1 Graham Cracker Pie Crust. (1/3 cup melted butter, 3 tbsp. sugar, 1 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 8oz block of cream cheese
- 1 cup of creamy peanut butter
- 12 oz. tub of cool whip topping
- 1 cup of chocolate chips (semi-sweet or milk chocolate)
- 3 Tbs of milk
- 1/3 cup of sugar
- 9 reese's cups
- Mix the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of Peanut Butter and the sugar. You can use a mixer, but was able to easily blend it by hand.
- Next Gently fold in the whole tub of cool whip and 4 crushed reese's cups.
- Fill the pie crust with all your peanut butter filling.
- Now melt your 1 cup of chocolate chips with 3 tablespoons of milk in the microwave. I put it in for 4 15second intervals and took it out then stirred really well until the chocolate was completely melted and smooth.
- Carefully coat the top of your peanut butter filling with the melted chocolate.
- Coat the entire pie up to the pie crust in one even layer.Before the chocolate topping starts to set, sprinkle 4 chopped peanut butter cup pieces over the pie and gently press it into the chocolate sauce. Refrigerate pie for 4-8 hours before serving.
