Ingredients
  

2 cups crushed graham crackers

1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1 cup creamy peanut butter

1 cup heavy cream

1/2 cup chocolate chips (semi-sweet or dark)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 teaspoon salt

Crushed pretzels (for topping)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a large bowl, mix together the crushed graham crackers, cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and melted butter. Stir until well combined, and the mixture resembles wet sand.

    Form the Base: Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even layer. Use the back of a glass or a measuring cup to pack it tightly.

      Make the Filling: In another bowl, combine the peanut butter, heavy cream, vanilla extract, and salt. Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until smooth and creamy.

        Add the Chocolate Chips: Gently fold in the chocolate chips into the peanut butter mixture until evenly distributed.

          Assemble the Pie: Pour the peanut butter filling over the graham cracker crust. Smooth the top with a spatula, ensuring it’s evenly spread.

            Chill: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set. For best results, leave it overnight.

              Serve: Before serving, sprinkle crushed pretzels over the top for a crunchy finish. Slice and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy, chocolatey, and salty flavors!
