To make the crust:

Pulse the ingredients together in a food processor. Press into a parchment-lined 7" springform pan.

To make the peanut butter layer:

Scoop out the solid cream from 2 cans of coconut milk (refrigerated overnight to separate the cream). Add the cream to a large mixing bowl and whip until light and fluffy.

In a saucepan, melt together the remaining ingredients on medium heat and whisk smooth.

Fold pb mixture into the whipped cream.

Spread 3/4 of the pb cream onto the crust. (Reserve 2-3 spoonfuls in a baggie for the topping). Freeze until set while you prepare the chocolate layer.

To make the chocolate layer:

Melt chocolate chips using a double boiler (or glass bowl set on a pot of boiling water)

Stir melted chocolate and cacao into the remaining pb cream.

Pour chocolate layer on top of pb layer. (Optional: swirl layers with a knife. Snip off corner of baggie and pipe on reserved cream to decorate)

Refrigerate cake about 4 hours, or until completely solid. Enjoy!
