Directions
Equipment Needed
oven
9 inch pie pan
refrigerator
1
Preheat oven to 350F. Combine all crust ingredients in a bowl, and stir until dough forms. Press dough evenly into a greased 9in pie pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
2
Combine peanut butter and cream cheese, and beat together with electric mixer. Add powdered sweetener (sift if needed to remove clumps) and beat again until combined. Add heavy cream 1/4 cup at a time, beating in between until mixture becomes smooth, thick, and very fluffy.
3
Spread filling evenly onto cooled pie crust and place in refrigerator.
4
Make ganache: heat heavy cream in a small saucepan over low-medium heat. As soon as cream begins to bubble slightly, add chocolate chips and remove from heat. Stir constantly until completely melted and smooth. Allow to cool for a few minutes.
5
Remove pie from the fridge, spread ganache evenly on top, then return to the fridge. Chill for at least 3 hours before slicing and serving.
6
Top with whipped cream and peanut butter cups!
