Microwave-safe bowl
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups whipping cream divided
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup chopped peanuts

Mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until it resembles wet sand and press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
Chill the crust while preparing the peanut butter filling.
Beat peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Whip 1 cup of whipping cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the peanut butter mixture.
Pour the peanut butter filling over the chilled crust and smooth it out.
Melt chocolate chips with 1/2 cup of whipping cream in the microwave until smooth and pour over the peanut butter layer.
Sprinkle chopped peanuts and peanut butter chips on top.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
Feel free to customize with extra toppings or drizzles.
For a dairy-free version, use coconut cream instead of whipping cream.
You can freeze individual slices for up to 2 months for a delicious treat later.
Make sure to chill the cake well for better flavor integration and consistency.
High-quality peanut butter will enhance the flavor of your dessert!
