There are no two ways about it..I love chocolate and peanut butter and the two of them together is out of this world! This is one chocolate peanut butter dessert that has rich layers starting with a chocolate cookie crust, a peanut butter and cream cheese middle, along with Reeses peanut butter cup and fudge, and topped with a fluffy, creamy whipped cream deliciousness that will melt in your mouth. This dessert takes a little bit of time to make and you will be glad that you did!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Dessert

- 1 cup confectioners sugar
- 8 Reeses peanut butter cups
- 12 ounce jar hot fudge
- 16 ounce heavy cream

Instructions
- Using a large ziploc bag, place cookies, and crush!
- Place in a small bowl and mix with melted butter until well blended
- Press the cookies down to form a crust in an 8×8 baking dish and place in fridge to harden-at least 15 minutes
- In a small bowl whip together the heavy cream and granulated sugar until very thick.
- In a large bowl blend together peanut butter, cream cheese and confectioners sugar, fold in one cup of the whipped cream and spread on top of cookie crust.
- Cut Reeses peanut butter cups into chunks and place on top of peanut butter cream cheese layer
- Place jar of hot fudge in microwave for 25 seconds, stir until you are able to pour over top of Reeses. Place the fudge back into the microwave if you need to.
