4. Spread the filling on the chilled crust, smooth if and place in the fridge for at least 3-4 hr, preferably overnight.

For the topping:

1. Place the melted chocolate and the warmed peanut butter into 2 seperate piping bags and create a small hole at the tip (you can also use ziplock bags if you don't have piping bags handy).

2. Drizzle both on top of your pie in a crisscross pattern.

Enjoy!
