Firmly press the mixture into the base of a 9-inch springform pan.
Refrigerate the crust to set while you make the filling.
Prepare the Filling:
In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Set this aside.
In another bowl, cream together the cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth.
Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until homogeneous.
Stir in the mini chocolate chips and Reese’s Pieces.
Evenly spread the filling over the prepared crust.
Add the Topping:

Either spread or pipe this whipped cream atop the cheesecake.

Finish with a drizzle of chocolate syrup.
Chill and Serve:
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to ensure it sets properly.
Before serving, remove the sides of the springform pan.
