Instructions
  1. Butter or spray a 9″ pie plate with cooking spray.
  2. In a bowl, combine the chocolate cookie crumbs, melted butter and sugar. Mix until well combined.
  3. Press firmly into a 9″ pie pan and refrigerate until well chilled.
  4. For peanut butter filling, combine half of room temperature cream cheese, peanut butter, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract in a bowl. Mix until well combined. Gently fold in 1 cup of prepared whipped cream, until incorporated.
  5. Spread the peanut butter filling evenly in the bottom of the cooled pie crust.
  6. Slice bananas and evenly layer the slices into the peanut butter filling, gently pressing into filling.
  7. For chocolate filling, combine the remaining room temperature cream cheese,1 teaspoon vanilla extract, cocoa powder and melted chocolate chips in a bowl. Mix until well combined. Gently fold in the remaining 1 cup of prepared whipped cream, until incorporated.
  8. Spread chocolate filling evenly over bananas, making sure to cover them completely. Refrigerate pie while preparing ganache.
  9. For ganache: Place chocolate chips and salt in a heat safe bowl. In a small pot, heat heavy cream just to a boil. Pour hot heavy cream over chocolate chips and salt. Do not stir, but let it sit for 10 minutes to allow chocolate to soften and then stir until smooth and shiny.
  10. Remove chilled pie from refrigerator and slowly pour ganache over chocolate filling until it is completely covered.
  11. Refrigerate pie until ganache is set.
  12. Top pie with whip cream and dust with cocoa powder or chocolate slivers. Refrigerate until needed.
