Instructions:

Make the Crust:
Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press firmly into a 9×13-inch dish and chill for 10 minutes to set. -
Prepare the Peanut Butter Layer:
In a large bowl, beat together peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Gently fold in whipped topping until the mixture is light and fluffy. Spread evenly over the chilled crust. -
Create the Ganache:
Heat the heavy cream until steaming but not boiling, then pour it over the chocolate chips. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy. Allow it to cool slightly before spreading over the peanut butter layer. -
Chill & Serve:
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set. Slice into portions and top with chopped peanuts or Reese’s pieces for an extra crunch if desired.
This dessert is creamy, chocolatey, and utterly addictive—every spoonful is a little piece of heaven that will leave everyone asking for seconds.
