Meanwhile, combine chocolate chips, ⅔ cup cream, corn syrup, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on medium heat until chocolate softens, about ⏱️ 3 minutes. Whisk until melted and smooth. Spread chocolate mixture over bottom of crust. Freeze ⏱️ 10 minutes.

Microwave peanut butter chips and ¾ cup cream in large microwave-safe bowl on medium heat at 15-second intervals just until chips soften, stirring often. Whisk in peanut butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Cool to barely lukewarm. Beat remaining 1 cup cream and 2 tablespoons sugar in medium bowl until very thick but not yet holding peaks; fold into peanut butter mixture in 3 additions. Spoon mousse over chocolate layer. Chill at least ⏱️ 1 hour and up to 1 day. Editor’s note: This delicious pie was originally published in our August 2006 issue and first appeared online in July 2006. Make it your own by changing up the cookie crust. Nearly any crunchy thing will work: Think chocolate graham crackers, peanut butter cookies, Oreos, or even fortune cookies for an easy, customized dessert recipe.
