INGREDIENTS:
CRUST:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup granulated white sugar
6 tablespoons butter, softened and slightly melted
FILLING:
12 ounces (1 1/2 packages) cream cheese, at room temperature
2/3 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated white sugar
2 large eggs
10 frozen snack-size Reeses Peanut Butter Cups
TOPPING:
chocolate syrup
6 frozen chopped snack-size Reeses Peanut Butter Cups
Instructions:
Crust: Combine the ingredients in a bowl until well-mixed. Use a spoon to press the crumbs up the side of a 9-inch pie plate, and use your hand to press down the bottom. Freeze until firm.
Filling: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. In a large bowl, use an electric mixer to combine the cream cheese, peanut butter, sugar and eggs until well-combined. Stir in the peanut butter cups. Scrape the filling into the frozen crust. Bake approximately 30 to 35 minutes. Let cool. When completely cooled, drizzle with chocolate and more chopped peanut butter cups. Keep chilled until ready to serve.
Quick Tip: Instead of chocolate syrup you could try serving this with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream!
