  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 block cream cheese

Powdered sugar and folding in the cream
  • 1 whole pre-made chocolate graham cracker crust
Mix in the whipped cream until smooth and fluffy; overmixing is fine.
Put the pre-made crust in the oven about 10 minutes to crisp, then cool completely.
Fill the crust and refrigerate, covered with the crust's lid, about 8 hours or overnight.
Filling and an overnight chill
  • heavy cream
Pour very hot heavy cream over the chocolate chips so they are submerged; let sit a minute or two, then whisk smooth.
Spread the ganache edge to edge and chill about half an hour to set.
Spreading the ganache and topping
Top generously with cool whip or whipped cream; optionally dust with cocoa powder, grate chocolate over or add chopped peanuts.
