Ingredients
  

For the crust:

  • 1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted

For the chocolate filling:

  • 1 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 1/4 cup cream divided
  • 1 cup semi sweet or milk choc chips
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar
  • pinch of salt

For the peanut butter mousse:

  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter don't use natural for this
  • 8 oz cream cheese room temp
  • 1 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla
  • 3/4 cup cream
  • pinch of salt
  • chopped reese's cups amount is to taste - I used probably 1 cup chopped

To decorate:

  • Reese's cups
  • whipped cream optional
  • peanut butter mousse optional

Instructions
 

For the crust:

  • Make the crust first so it has time to cool. Heat your oven to 350 degrees. Combine the crumbs and melted butter until sandy. Press into a 9 inch pie dish using a glass or measuring cup to press it in.
  • Bake for 10 minutes and then cool.

For the chocolate filling:

  • Heat the marshmallows, 1/4 cup of cream and salt in a saucepan over low heat. Stir constantly until the marshmallows are almost melted. Remove pan from the heat and add the chocolate chips. Stir until smooth and cool for 15-20 minutes.
  • Whip 1 cup of cream with 2 tbsp powdered sugar and a tsp vanilla in a stand mixer until stiff peaks form. Fold this into the chocolate mixture once it is cool to the touch, then spread into the bottom of the crust.

For the peanut butter layer:

  • Beat the peanut butter and cream cheese in a stand mixer with the paddle attachment until light and smooth, scraping the sides as needed. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla and salt and beat until smooth. Add the cream and beat again until smooth. If you are planning to use some of the filling to decorate the top, reserve 3/4 - 1 cup of the filling now. Then add the chopped Reese's according to your taste to the rest of the filling. Spread this over the chocolate layer.

To finish:

  • If you are using peanut butter filling or whipped cream on top, pipe or spread it over the top of the peanut butter layer. Top with Reese's cups as desired. Refrigerate for 4 hours to fully set, then slice.
