Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Press into a 9-inch pie plate.
  2. Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until lightly golden. Cool completely.

  4. Pour the peanut butter filling into the cooled crust.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  6. Heat heavy cream in a saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour over chocolate chips.
  7. Let stand for 5 minutes, then whisk until smooth and glossy. Pour ganache over the set peanut butter filling.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or until the ganache is set. Serve chilled.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use dark chocolate chips in the ganache. You can also add a pinch of salt to the peanut butter filling to enhance the flavors. Store leftover pie in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
