  • ½ cup Creamy Peanut Butter
  • ½ cup Confectioners' Sugar
Topping
Instructions
Crust
  1. Preheat oven, 350 degrees.

  3. Mix crumbs, sugar and butter.
  4. Press mixture firmly and evenly against bottom and side of 9-inch pie pan.
  5. Bake 10 minutes. Cool.
Filling
  1. In a large mixing bowl, mix the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar and peanut butter together until smooth.
  2. Fold in ½ of the whipped topping.
  3. Spoon the mixture into the chocolate cookie crust.

  1. Place the remaining whipped topping over the top of the peanut butter mixture and garnish with the crumbled peanut butter cups, caramel and chocolate sauce.
  2. Chill for at least 2 hours or overnight before serving.
Notes
This is very, very rich, so one pie will go a long way. Cut the pie into 16 slices and your guests will love you!

You can also use a pre-made pie crust if you do not want to make your own. Keebler makes a good chocolate ready crust.
