  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

  4. Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
  6. Melt chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl, stir until smooth, let it cool slightly, then pour over the chilled cheesecake.
  7. Slice and serve. Enjoy!

Notes
