Peanut Butter Banana Refrigerator Pie Recipe

Crust and First Layer:

1. Place cookies in a large freezer bag and crush using a rolling pin. Or pulse in a food processor.

2. Combine crumbs with melted butter in a small bowl. Press into the bottom of an 8 by 10-inch springform pan or pie plate.

3. Pour fudge sauce over crust and place bananas in a single layer over the fudge sauce.

Whipped Cream:

1. In a medium bowl, whip heavy cream with an electric mixer for 2 to 3 minutes, or until soft peaks form.

2. Add cornstarch and powdered sugar and beat until firm peaks form. Transfer to a plate or small bowl and set aside.

Filling:

1. Combine cream cheese, peanut butter, and vanilla in the same bowl used for whipped cream. Beat for 2 minutes, or until smooth.

2. Add powdered sugar and beat for 1 minute. Add the heavy cream and beat for 30 seconds, or until smooth and creamy.

3. Use a spatula to gently stir in the whipped cream until combined.

4. Scoop the filling over the bananas and spread with a spatula to form an even layer.

5. Place in pie in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm. Slice and drizzle with hot fudge sauce before serving.
