Vintage Peanut Butter Pie
- 1 whole Pre-baked Pie Crust
- 8 ounces, weight Cream Cheese, At Room Temperature
- 3/4 cups Sugar
- 1 cup Smooth Peanut Butter
- 2 teaspoons Vanilla Extract
- 1 cup Whipping Cream
- 8 ounces, weight Semi-sweet Chocolate
- 4 Tablespoons Hot Brewed Coffee
- 2 Tablespoons Heavy Cream
- Prepare the pre-made pie crust. I recommend a chocolate cookie crust or a chocolate graham cracker crust, though any type will do.
- Combine the cream cheese, sugar, peanut butter, and vanilla. Beat until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Whip the whipping cream and fold it into the peanut butter mixture. By adding 1/4 of the whipping cream to begin with, the ingredients will be easier to combine. Take care not to deflate the whipping cream.
- Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust, smooth the top, and chill in the fridge for about an hour.
- Break up the semi-sweet chocolate and pour in the hot coffee. Let the coffee melt the chocolate before adding the heavy cream. Stir until smooth and pour evenly over the entire pie.
- Chill the pie for an additional 3 hours. Serve cold.
