Steps:

• In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine butter and peanut butter. Heat in the microwave until soft; mix well. Gradually stir in confectioners' sugar until the mixture resembles a soft dough. Spread mixture into 2 pie crusts.
• In a small bowl, mix the milk with the instant pudding. Pour over the peanut butter mixture in each crust. Chill until firm.

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, combine pudding and peanut butter; stir until smooth. Fold in whipped topping; stir until completely blended.
• Pour filling into pie crust. Freeze pie until firm. Partially thaw in refrigerator, for about 2 hours or so, before serving. You can store leftovers in the refrigerator or freezer. Leftover pie sometimes gets a little soft in the refrigerator, and doesn't hold its shape. It still tastes good, though. If you want perfect looking slices after you make the first incision, store in freezer and thaw as needed.

Steps:

• Crust: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a food processor, pulse wafers until finely ground. In a bowl, combine wafer crumbs, butter, brown sugar, and salt. Press mixture firmly into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes. Bake until set, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool completely on a wire rack.
• Filling: With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and salt until fluffy. Beat in peanut butter and vanilla.

• Garnish: Melt chocolate in heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pan of simmering water. (Alternatively, you can melt it in the microwave.) Transfer melted chocolate to a resealable plastic bag. Snip tip from one corner of bag to make a very small opening. Holding bag about 5 inches above pie, drizzle melted chocolate over top. In a small saucepan over low heat (or in the microwave), melt peanut butter. Place in a resealable plastic bag; snip corner, and drizzle in same manner as melted chocolate. Let pie stand 10 minutes before slicing.
