    Ingredients

    • 6 tablespoons butter
    • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
    • 2 1/2 cups crispy rice cereal
    • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
    • 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
    • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla
    • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
    • 1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed
    • 2 tablespoons hot fudge sauce
    • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

    Directions

    1. 1In a medium microwave safe bowl, melt butter and chocolate chips in the microwave for about a minute or until melted. Stir together until combined. Add crispy rice cereal and stir well to coat.
    2. 2Press into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan. You could use a pie pan but I've found that a springform pan is much easier when it comes to removing slices. Place in the freezer to chill while you make the filling (about 10 minutes).
    3. 3In a large bowl beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add the sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter and mix until thoroughly combined.
    4. 4Add vanilla and lemon juice and mix until combined.
    5. 5Gently fold in the whipped topping. Pour filling into the prepared crust.
    6. 6Heat fudge and peanut butter in two small separate bowls for 20-30 seconds or until warm. Drizzle over filling.
    7. 7Freeze for 4-6 hours or until pie is firm. Remove the cheesecake from the freezer about 10 minutes before serving to make cutting easier. Garnish with peanut butter and chocolate candy bars.

    @happybaker3, Condensed milk is much sweeter and more dense so it could not be replaced with sour cream or heavy cream.

    can the condensed milk be replaced with heavy cream or sour cream? would the amount be the same if changed?

    Hi @Ricky22- you sure can use a pie plate, but we recommend a springform pan- that way it's easier to remove slices.

    Hi @Piddy - This recipe uses regular crispy rice cereal, but the chocolate variety could add some extra oomph :)

    Do you use regular rice cereal or chocolate?

    I made this last night for my family and not of them didn't enjoy it. This is delicious!! I never follow recipes to a a T I always do my own thing. Instead of using the rice crispie crust I used your basic grahm cracker crust and put the chocolate chips in the bottom before putting the filling in. I also used a little less lemon juice and a little more peanut butter and cool whip.

    I do love peanut butter and peanut butter cups but this recipe is the first I came across I really don't like and nor did the rest of the faimly. Maybe if the peanut butter was cut down some (meaning not as much put in) and us a different kind of crust it "might" be alittle better.

    @Susan1258: When you see "frozen whipped topping", yes, they are referring to Cool Whip.

    Can anyone help me? I have a question on the whipped cream is this whipping cream that has been whipped to make one cup . Do I start with 1 cup of whipping cream and then whip and add one cup of the whipped cream to the recipe. Or is this asking for a cup of "cool whip"?
