Ingredients

Six 1.56-ounce Snickers® candy bars, roughly chopped (about 2 cups), plus more for garnish

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cubed

One 9-ounce package chocolate wafer cookies

1/2 cup dulce de leche

1/2 cup hot fudge sauce, warmed

1 cup crunchy peanut butter

One 8-ounce package cream cheese, at room temperature

1 cup confectioners' sugar

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup salted roasted peanuts, chopped

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. For the crust: Melt 1 cup of the candy bars with the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, whisking frequently, about 4 minutes.
  3. Pulse the cookies in a food processor to fine crumbs. Drizzle in the candy mixture until the crumbs are completely coated. Firmly press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the side of a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Bake until the crust is set, 10 to 12 minutes. Spread the dulce de leche over the warm crust with an offset spatula then drizzle with 1/4 cup hot fudge; set aside.
  4. For the filling: Beat the peanut butter, cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until combined. Whip the cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until combined. Fold in the remaining 1 cup chopped candy bars. Pour the filling into the crust, evening out the top with a spatula. Drizzle with the remaining 1/4 cup hot fudge sauce.
  5. Make a decorative ring around the edge of the pie (do not cover the crust) with more chopped candy bars, overlapping them slightly. Inside that ring, make a second ring with the chopped peanuts. Chill until set, at least 4 hours and up to overnight.

The crust recipe was awful (hard as a rock). Instead I used a store bought graham cracker crust and it turned out fantastic! Everyone LOVED it! So save yourself the trouble and buy either the graham cracker crust or the chocolate store bought crust. I WILL. E SERVING THIS AGAIN!
