Special Precautions and Tips:
- Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before beating it. This will help it to become smooth and creamy.
- Do not overbeat the whipped cream. If it becomes too stiff, it will not blend well with the other ingredients.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the flavors to meld.
- Top the pie with additional chocolate chips and peanuts just before serving for a more decadent presentation.
