No-Bake Peanut Butter Twix Pie

Ingredients

2 cups of shortbread cookie crumbs ( I use Nabisco Lorna Doone, about 30 cookies)
6 tablespoons butter, melted
8 ounces low-fat cream cheese, room temperature (or you can use regular)
1 cup peanut butter
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate
1 1/2 containers (8 ounces each) Cool Whip (fat-free, regular, or sugar-free)

Directions  

Stir cookie crumbs and melted butter with a fork. Press into a 9” pie plate. Chill until ready to fill.
Beat cream cheese until smooth with a hand mixer. Mix in peanut butter, sugar, and vanilla extract. Fold in 1 container (8 ounces) Cool Whip. It will require some stirring, but stir carefully. Some lumps will remain. Spread filling into pie crust.
Melt semi-sweet chocolate in a microwave safe bowl in 30 second increments, stirring between each. They should melt and be smooth in about a minute. Stir in 1 cup (about half of the remaining tub) of Cool Whip. Spread over top of pie.
Chill pie overnight (or at least 4 hours) before serving. Serve alone, or with more Cool Whip for garnish.
Enjoy!    

Note:
If you're not using Lorna Doone cookies, you may need less butter. Nabisco Lorna Doone shortbread cookies usually have a lower fat ratio than others.
