No Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake

Step 1

Crush chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor. You want a fine crumb.

Step 2

Stir melted butter into chocolate sandwich cookies crumbs with a fork until all are moistened. Press into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. Chill until filling is done.

Step 3

Beat room temperature cream cheese and peanut butter with a hand or a stand mixer until smooth. Mix in the powdered sugar until creamy and smooth.

Step 4

Add the vanilla and then slowly add the whipping cream while mixing. Continue mixing until stiff peaks form (the cheesecake will stand up when you move the mixer).

Step 5

Spread cheesecake into prepared pan. Chill at least one hour before slicing and serving.

Step 6

Garnish with whipped cream before serving, optional.
