Using a stand or handheld mixer, beat the cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar and salt until creamy and well blended. Spread into the bottom of a prepared chocolate pie crust, smoothing evenly into the edges with a spatula. Chill in the fridge while preparing the ganache.

To make the ganache, add the chocolate chips to a glass or other heat safe bowl. Heat the heavy cream in a small pot over low heat until just below simmering. Pour over the chocolate chips. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes, then stir with a rubber spatula until smooth. Let cool until room temperature, then spread gently over the prepared peanut butter filling. Chill until set, about 20 minutes.
1 ½ cups milk chocolate chips, 1 cup heavy cream
Once the ganache has set completely, spread the top with the whipped topping, then sprinkle with the chopped peanut butter cups. Chill until ready to serve.
