Method for Making Peanut Butter Dessert Lasagna
Step 1. Prepare the Cookie Crust
In a food processor, crush the chocolate sandwich cookies until they resemble fine crumbs. Alternatively, you can place the cookies in a zip-lock bag and crush them using a rolling pin. Once crushed, combine the cookie crumbs with the melted unsalted butter, mixing until well combined.
Step 2. Create the Peanut Butter Layer
In a medium-sized bowl, mix together 1 cup of creamy peanut butter, 1 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract until smooth. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the prepared cookie crust in the baking dish.
