# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Take the chilled dessert out of the pan and add whipped cream, M&Ms, and more Snickers if you like. Cut it up and make sure it's served cool.
02 -
Pour all the pink filling you made over the crust and even out the top with a spatula. Put plastic wrap over it and pop it in the fridge. Wait at least four hours till it’s firmed up.
03 -
Whip your heavy cream until thick enough to keep peaks standing up. Carefully fold this whipped cream into your pink filling. Don’t stir too hard—keep that mix fluffy.
04 -
Scoop out a little bit of the filling into a separate bowl. Stir in some pink food dye until it’s as pink as you want. Then gently swirl that colored filling through the bigger bowl, so the color looks nice and even.
05 -
With a beater in hand, mix the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until everything’s super smooth. Slowly add in the melted chocolate, making sure it's not hot. Once that’s mixed, fold in the Snickers chunks lightly so it all stays airy.
06 -
Put the chocolate chips in a saucepan on medium, stirring until they turn smooth. Let that cool for a couple minutes off the heat.
07 -
Smash up Oreos or graham crackers with a food processor or squish them up in a bag using a rolling pin. Toss these crumbs together with the melted butter and press them down flat at the base of your springform pan. Stick this in the fridge for half an hour so it gets nice and firm.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Pick gel food color for a bolder pink. If you want those slices totally set up, leave your dessert in the fridge overnight.
