Tips:

  • Use a food processor or blender to grind the pretzels into fine crumbs. This will help the crust hold together better.
  • Press the pretzel crumbs firmly into the bottom of the springform pan. This will help prevent the crust from cracking.
  • Use a large bowl to mix the cream cheese, sugar, and peanut butter. This will help to ensure that all of the ingredients are well combined.
  • Beat the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This will help to create a light and fluffy filling.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, or the filling will become too runny.
  • Pour the filling onto the pretzel crust. Spread it out evenly with a spatula.
  • Refrigerate the cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will allow the filling to set.
  • Top the cake with chopped peanuts and chocolate chips before serving.
