Decadent Peanut Butter Pie

1 Cup Creamy Peanut Butter plus 2 T divided
1 8 oz pkg cream cheese softened
1/2 Cup Sugar
1 12 oz container (4 1/2 cups) frozen whipped topping thawed and divided
1 Prepared chocolate or graham pie crust
1 Jar Hot Fudge spoonable ice cream topping (11.75 oz) divided
Beat together 1 cup peanut butter, cream cheese, and sugar in large bowl with an electric mixer on medium until well combined.  Gently mix in 3 cups whipped topping until thoroughly combined.  Spoon mixture into pie crust.  Using a spatula, smooth mixture to edges of pie.
Reserve 2 T of hot fudge topping in the corner of resealable bag.  Set aside.  Microwave remaining topping on high for one minute.  Stir.  Spread topping over pie--covering the entire peanut butter layer.  Refrigerate until set.  Spread remaining whipped topping (1 1/2 cups) over hot fudge layer being careful not to mix the two layers.

Cut small corner from bag containing topping.  Squeeze bag to drizzle over pie.  Place remaining 2 T of peanut butter in resealable bag.  Cut bag corner and squeeze to drizzle in opposite direction from topping.  Refrigerate until ready to serve.
