Instructions

for the crust:

  1. Preheat oven to 325° F. 
  2. Combine the flour, sugar, and salt in a medium bowl. With a pastry blender, cut in the butter until crumbly. Then quickly mix with hands until it forms a dough. Don’t worry if it seems a bit dry.
  3. Press dough evenly onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9″ pie pan. Aim for a uniform thickness on all surfaces and don’t press the dough in too hard.
  4. Bake the crust for 15 to 18 minutes, or just until lightly browned. Set on wire rack to cool.

for the mississippi mud fudge brownie layer:

  1. Leave the oven set to 325° F.
  2. In a small saucepan over low heat, stir the butter and chocolate until chocolate is melted. Remove from heat and whisk in the sugar, and then the egg. Then add the espresso powder, vanilla, and salt, and whisk again. Sift the flour over the chocolate mixture and stir to blend well. Spread evenly over pie crust and return pan to oven.
  3. Bake for 18 minutes, until the chocolate layer is slightly puffed and dry-looking. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

for the peanut butter layer:

  1. In a medium bowl with an electric mixer, whip the cream until stiff. In a separate medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and then beat in the peanut butter and butter. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt, and mix until smooth.
  2. Gently fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is consistent. Spread peanut butter mixture evenly over the Mississippi mud fudge brownie layer.

to finish the pie:

  1. Create a chocolate glaze by combining cream and chocolate chips in a small saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir constantly until chocolate is melted and mixture is smooth.
  2. Cool for 10 to 20 minutes, stirring occasionally until glaze is thickened, but still pourable. Stir chocolate glaze until completely smooth, then drizzle over the top of the peanut butter layer. Immediately, sprinkle with chopped peanuts and dark chocolate curls.
  3. Place pie in refrigerator to set. It is best to let it chill for at least two hours before serving.
