Equipment
Ingredients
Crust
- 2 boxes Simple Mills Chocolate Thins or 9 oz gluten free chocolate cookies of choice
- 6 tbsp vegan butter
Filling
- ⅔ cup creamy peanut butter I like the consistency of Justin's peanut butter
- 8 oz Kite Hill plain cream cheese or vegan cream cheese of choice
- ⅓ cup powdered peanut butter I like PB2 brand
- ¼ cup pure maple syrup
- 1.5 tsp vanilla extract
- 9 oz Cocowhip dairy free whipped topping + more for topping, if desired
- chocolate drizzle or chocolate shavings for topping, if desired
Instructions
- Make the crust: Preheat oven to 375. Add the chocolate cookies into a food processor and pulse until they resemble sand.
- Add in the melted butter and pulse until combined. Add the mixture to a greased 9-inch pie dish and dress down and up the sides of the pie dish firmly using your hands or the bottom of a flat cup. Bake for 10 minutes. Let it cool completely.
- While the crust is cooling, make the filling. Add the peanut butter, cream cheese, powdered peanut butter, maple syrup (or honey), and vanilla into a large bowl. Beat with a hand mixer on high speed or by hand for about 1-2 minutes until well combined.
- Add the coco whip dairy free topping and continue mixing until fluffy.
- Add the filling to the pie crust and smooth it over with a spatula. Pop in the freezer for 2-3 hours or refrigerate overnight. When ready to serve, drizzle with some chocolate and melted peanut butter and a dollop of cocowhip, if desired. Enjoy!
