Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix wafer crumbs and butter; press onto the bottom and up the sides of an ungreased 9 inch pie plate. Bake at 350 for 8-10 minutes or until set. Cool completely on wire rack.

Slice bananas; arrange on bottom of crust. In a microwave safe bowl, combine peanut butter and chocolate; microwave on high for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes or until blended and smooth, stirring every 30 seconds. Spoon over bananas.

In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mix for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Fold in 1 cup whipped topping; spread over chocolate mixture. Pipe or top with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate, covered, for at least 3 hours.

Sprinkle with peanuts just before serving. If desired, serve with cup up peanut butter cups.
