Peanut Butter Pie with Oreo Crust for 8 Servings: Creamy

Instructions:

1. Combine the Oreo crumbs, melted butter, and salt. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pie plate until it is evenly distributed and feels compact. Place in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.
2. Beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla.
3. In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture using a rubber spatula until no white streaks remain and the texture is cloud-like.
5. Heat the heavy cream in a saucepan until it just begins to simmer (do not boil). Pour the hot cream over the chocolate chips and let sit for 5 minutes.
6. Stir the chocolate mixture slowly from the center outward until it becomes a silky, mahogany-colored glaze. Pour over the filling and chill for at least 4 hours.
