Ingredients Crust - 2 cups chocolate graham cracker or Oreo crumbs - 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted Cheesecake - 24 oz cream cheese, softened - ½ cup sugar - ¾ cup creamy peanut butter - ½ cup Reese’s coffee creamer or heavy cream - 3 large eggs - 16 Reese’s peanut butter cups, chopped Chocolate Ganache - ¼ cup heavy cream - ¾ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips Peanut Butter Frosting - ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened - ¼ cup creamy peanut butter - 1 cup powdered sugar Instructions 1. Prepare Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter and press into an 8- or 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then cool. Reduce oven to 325°F. 2. Make Cheesecake: Beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in sugar, peanut butter, and creamer. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently. Fold in chopped Reese’s cups and pour over crust. 3. Bake: Place the springform pan in an oven-safe bag and set inside a larger roasting pan with 1 inch of hot water. Bake at 325°F for 65–85 minutes, until edges are firm and center slightly jiggles. 4. Cool: Remove from the water bath and bag. Return cheesecake to the turned-off oven with the door cracked for 60–90 minutes. Cool completely, then refrigerate overnight. 5. Make Ganache: Heat heavy cream until boiling, pour over chocolate chips, and let sit for 1 minute. Stir until smooth and cool for 5–7 minutes. 6. Make Frosting: Beat softened butter, peanut butter, and powdered sugar until creamy. Transfer to a piping bag. 7. Decorate: Remove cheesecake from pan, spread chocolate ganache on top, pipe peanut butter frosting swirls around the edges, and garnish with extra chopped Reese’s cups. 8. Serve: Slice and enjoy!
