Peanut Butter Silk Pie (a.k.a Kelsey's Most Requested Pie)

1 graham cracker pie crust (9") or for a chocolatier version, an Oreo crust

Fudge Layer:

1 cup white sugar
2 ounces bittersweet chocolate (I've used semisweet also)
1/3 cup evaporated milk
1 tbsp corn syrup
1 heaping tbsp peanut butter

Combine everything except the peanut butter in a medium saucepan and cook together over low heat, stirring occasionally. Cook to softball stage (234-240 on a candy thermometer). Remove from heat; stir in peanut butter. Beat lightly for a few minutes; pour into the bottom of the crust. Chill thoroughly before adding the filling.

Pie Filling:

8 oz pkg cream cheese
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla
1/2 cup milk
2 cups whipped topping

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk. Fold in the whipped topping. Spoon over top of fudge layer. Garnich with chocolate curls and/or chopped peanuts. Chill thoroughly before serving.
