Number Of Ingredients 15

CRUST
refrigerated pie crust, room temperature
BROWNIE
1 brownie box mix plus ingredients per package (I used Betty Crocker Supreme and saved the chocolate syrup for the topping)
CHEESECAKE FILLING
8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 c confectioners' sugar
3/4 c peanut butter
1/2 c milk
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
TOPPING
chocolate syrup
semi-sweet mini chocolate chips
whatever sounds good to you(i.e. peanuts, coconut, etc.)

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350. Press room temperature pie crust into 9" pie pan. Set aside.
  • 2. Cream milk and cream cheese with electric mixer on a lower speed until smooth.
  • 3. Add confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla. Mix until blended.
  • 4. Mix brownies as directed on box. Pour half of the brownie mix into prepared pie crust.
  • 5. Next, spoon all of the cream cheese mixture on top of the brownie layer.
  • 6. Pour the rest of the brownie mixture on top. Smooth over with rubber spatula.
  • 7. Cover the edges of pie with aluminum foil to prevent crust from over browning. Bake 35-40 minutes.
  • 8. After 35-40 minutes, remove foil from pie and bake an additional 10-15 minutes (pie may crack on top, this is okay).
  • 9. Remove pie from the oven.
  • 10. Sprinkle with mini chips. Let pie cool completely (3 hours on the counter, hour and a half in the fridge). After the pie is cool, you can drizzle with the chocolate syrup if your boxed brownie included the chocolate packet.
  • 11. Slice and enjoy. Watch out! It's decadent.
