Chocolate & Peanut Butter Ribbon Dessert

During the summer when it is hot out the last thing I want to do is heat up my RV by baking a dessert in the over. I am always looking for good dessert that do not need to be baked.  I think I found one.  I made this a few weeks ago for a group of friends we were camping with.  It was a big hit. 

You will need:

12 nutter butter Peanut butter sandwichs cookies, divided
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 pkg. (8oz.) cream cheese
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla 
1 tub (12oz) Cool Whip whipped toppiung, thawe3d, divided
2 squares Baker's semi-sweet chocolate, melted

Crush 8 cookies, mix with butter.  Press onto bottom of foil-lined 9x5 loaf pan.  Mix next 4 ingredients with mixer until well blended.  Whisk in 3 cups cool whip, spoon 1/2 cup into small bowl.  Blend melted chocolate  with the 1/2 cup cool whip.  Spoon 1/2 the remaining cream cheese mixture over the crust, top with layer of chocolate mixture and remining cream cheese mixture. Freeze for 4 hours or until firm.  Invert onto plate.  Remove foil, then reinvert dessert onto serving plater so the crumb layer is on the bottom.  Coarsely break remaining cookies.  Top dessert with remaining Cool Whip and cookies.
