Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 25 pieces Oreos (whole) Provide that classic chocolatey taste.
  • 5 TBSP unsalted butter (melted) Can use a non-dairy alternative.

Chocolate Layer

  • 6 oz cream cheese (room temperature) Must be fully softened to avoid lumps.
  • 2 TBSP unsweetened cocoa powder Use good quality cocoa for best results.
  • 1/2 cup white granulated sugar Essential for balancing sweetness.
  • 1/3 cup sour cream (room temperature) Can use Greek yogurt; avoid thick alternatives.
  • 3.5 oz chocolate bar (melted) Use preferred chocolate type.

Peanut Butter Layer

  • 10 oz cream cheese (room temperature) Foundation for the peanut butter blend.
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter Choose a good quality creamy version.
  • 1/3 cup sour cream Add a dash of vanilla if desired.
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar Sweetens without graininess.

Whipped Cream

  • 2 cups heavy cream (cold) Must be ice-cold for fluffiness.
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar To sweeten the whipped cream.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Crush 25 Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs.
  • Melt 5 tablespoons of unsalted butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds.
  • Mix Oreo crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until combined.
  • Press the mixture firmly into a pie dish to form the crust.

Making Layers

  • In one bowl, mix 6 oz cream cheese, 2 tbsp cocoa powder, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/3 cup sour cream, and 3.5 oz melted chocolate until smooth.
  • Spread the chocolate filling over the prepared crust.
  • In another bowl, beat 10 oz cream cheese with 3/4 cup peanut butter and 1/2 cup powdered sugar until smooth.
  • Layer the peanut butter mixture over the chocolate layer carefully.
  • In a separate bowl, whip 2 cups cold heavy cream with 1/2 cup powdered sugar until stiff peaks form.
  • Spread whipped cream over the peanut butter layer.

Finishing

  • Drizzle melted peanut butter on top for decoration.
  • Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight.

Notes

Use quality ingredients for the best flavor. Allowing the cream cheese to warm to room temperature prevents lumps.
