Directions:
Crust:
Combine butter, graham wafer crumbs and sugar. Press into the bottom of a 10" spring form pan. Bake for 10 minutes at 350 degrees F.
Cool completely before adding filling.
Filling:
In a large mixer bowl, beat cream cheese, peanut butter, and sugar until light and fluffy.
Whip cream and fold into peanut butter mixture. Pour over cooled crust.

Combine sugar, cream and vanilla in a saucepan. Stir to blend. Place over medium-high heat and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes - do not stir.
Remove from heat and add chocolate and butter. Stir with a wooden spoon until chocolate has melted and the mixture becomes quite shiny - about 5 minutes.
Pour over filling. Refrigerate at least 8 hours, or overnight.
