# Steps:
01 -
Mix the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and room-temperature cream cheese in a big bowl until it's totally smooth and creamy, without any clumps.
02 -
In another clean bowl, whip the heavy cream until firm peaks stand up on their own.
03 -
Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter blend, making sure it stays airy and light without losing fluffiness.
04 -
Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly into the pie crust, smoothing the top neatly with a spatula.
05 -
In a microwave-safe bowl, combine chocolate chips with heavy cream. Heat in short 30-second bursts, and stir until silky and fully melted.
06 -
Pour the chocolate mixture over the filled crust, making sure it covers the whole top. Smooth it out with a spatula for an even finish.
07 -
Arrange Reese's candies on top however you'd like for a fun, decorative touch.
08 -
Pop it in the fridge for no less than 4 hours, or until everything is firm and set.
# Notes:

Leave cream cheese out so it'll blend better when soft

For best results, chill the bowl and mixer tools before whipping cream
