Peanut Butter Pie in a Jar

Equipment

  • 12 8 oz jars or glasses

Ingredients
  

  • 6 large peanut butter or peanut butter chocolate chip cookies
  • 2 cups butterscotch chips
  • 1 cup semi sweet chocolate chips
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy cream
  • 24 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups for garnish halved or chopped
  • whipped cream for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Crumble cookies and put in the bottom of jars. I used about 1/2 cookie per jar. .
  • Put 1 cup of butterscotch chips in a 2 cup measuring cup. Add 1/2 cup heavy cream. Microwave for 1 minute on high.* Stir. Return to microwave for 30 seconds. Stir. Mixture should be smooth and melted enough to pour
  • Pour butterscotch over cookie crumbs in 6 jars.
  • Repeat the process with remaining butterscotch chips, 1/2 cup cream and remaining jars. You do not have to clean measuring cup before using again.

Notes

Do not cook chocolate or butterscotch chips too long or they will become grainy. Adjust time according to your own oven or melt chips in a double boiler.
