Ingredients
1 cup butter, softened
1 (9 inch) prepared chocolate cookie crumb crust
2 cups confectioners' sugar
4 eggs
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
8 (1 ounce) squares semisweet chocolate
1 cup smooth peanut butter
Directions
Chop 6 ounces of semisweet chocolate and place in a heatproof bowl. Melt over low heat or using a double boiler, stirring frequently until smooth. Allow to cool to room temperature.
In a large bowl, combine 4 eggs, 3/4 cup of softened butter, the cooled melted chocolate, and 2 cups confectioners' sugar. Beat on medium speed for a full 5 minutes until the mixture becomes thick, smooth, and well combined.
In a separate bowl, beat together 1 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup softened butter, and 1/3 cup heavy whipping cream until light and fluffy.
Spoon the chocolate filling into the prepared 9-inch chocolate cookie crust, spreading evenly across the bottom.
Drop spoonfuls of the peanut butter mixture over the chocolate filling and gently swirl together using a knife or spatula to create a marbled pattern.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 to 4 hours, or until the filling is set and firm. Cut into 10 slices and serve chilled.
Comments
Every ingredient is stocked at every major Charlotte grocer—butter, eggs, heavy cream, peanut butter, and chocolate are ubiquitous—and a pre-made chocolate cookie crust sidesteps the need to make pastry from scratch, keeping cost under fifteen dollars for ten servings or roughly $1.50 per slice. The 120-minute time is honest if you're chilling a no-bake filling, though the "time" is mostly passive; active prep is closer to 20 minutes, which is actually a strength for weeknight dessert planning. This is a heavy, fussy dessert best served same-night or next-day, not a candidate for a crowded Tuesday, and it demands adequate refrigerator space if you're feeding a crowd.
