8 ounces chocolate cookies
4 tablespoons butter, melted
4 ounces finely chopped chocolate or semisweet chocolate chips
¼ cup chopped peanut
1 cup heavy cream
8 ounces cream cheese
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
1 14 ounce can sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

Add the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract and lemon juice. Increase speed to medium and beat unilt all ingredients are combined and filling is smooth.

4. Stir 1/3 of the whipped cream into the filling mixture. Fold in the remaining whipped cream. Pour the filling into the pan and drizzle the melted chocolate on top. Refrigerate for three hours or overnight before serving.
