Instructions
1
To make the crust: Mix together the melted butter and oreo crumbs. Pat into a 9X9-inch pie plate to make a crust. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
2
To make the fudge layer: Chop the unsweetened chocolate finely and place in a medium-size bowl along with powdered sugar. Heat the corn syrup in the microwave in 20-second increments or on the stovetop over low heat. When the syrup is bubbling, remove from heat and pour over the chocolate and stir until all the chocolate is melted and the mixture is smooth. Let cool for until the sauce is mostly cooled.
3
To make the peanut butter filling: Place the cream cheese, icing sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl and beat on low speed using a handheld electric mixer. Add the peanut butter and beat until combined. Finally, add the whipping cream and beat on low at first gradually increasing the speed to high as the mixture comes together and starts to thicken until it is the consistency of whipped cream.
4
To assemble the pie: Take the crust out of the refrigerator and place half of the peanut butter filling directly on top of the crust and spread it around evenly using an offset spatula. Next, pour the cooled fudge sauce over and spread around using the back of a spoon. Lastly, top with the other half of the peanut butter filling and spread around carefully, so as to not disturb the fudge layer below. Refrigerate the pie for 2-4 hours before serving. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Prevent Cracks with Room Temperature Ingredients 🌡️Allow cream cheese to sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before mixing to ensure a smooth, lump-free filling that won't crack during baking.
- Fudge Ribbon Placement Technique 🎀Pour half the peanut butter filling, then drizzle the fudge sauce in concentric circles and swirl gently with a knife for a professional marbled effect without over-mixing.
- Oreo Crust Texture Secret 🍪Toast the Oreo crumbs with butter for 2-3 minutes before pressing into the pan to enhance flavor depth and create a sturdier, less crumbly crust.
- Water Bath Cooling Strategy 💧After baking, leave the pie in the oven with the door cracked open for 1 hour to cool gradually, then refrigerate overnight to prevent sudden temperature changes that cause cracking.
- Whipped Cream Stability for Topping 🫧Add 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar and ½ teaspoon vanilla to your heavy cream and chill the bowl for 15 minutes before whipping for better stability and fluffier peaks.
