Preparation

Step 1

To prepare the crust, start by preheating the oven to 350°F.

In a small mixing bowl, combine the pretzels, graham crackers, and sugar. Add the butter and stir until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and halfway up the sides of a 9-inch deep-dish pie pan. Bake for 15 minutes and then let cool completely.

To prepare the filling, beat together the cream cheese, peanut butter, and powdered sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Once smooth, fold in the whipped topping and peanut butter cups. Spread the mixture into the cooled crust and chill for at least 4 hours.

To prepare the topping, melt the chocolate and heavy cream in a double boiler. Remove the chocolate from the simmering water, whisk, and let it come to room temperature, stirring every 10 minutes. Spread the chocolate over the top of the pie filling.


Sprinkle the Snickers, Rolo, Butterfinger, Reese's Pieces, M&M, and nonpareil candies over the chocolate. Chill the pie until the chocolate topping is set, about 2 hours.
