Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (about 25 Oreo cookies)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars, divided
  • 1/2 cup cold heavy cream (for optional topping)
  • 1 tablespoon powdered sugar (for optional topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Beat until the mixture is fully combined and creamy.
  3. Fold in the whipped topping: Gently fold in about two-thirds of the thawed whipped topping until no streaks remain. Be careful not to deflate the mixture.
  4. Add candy pieces: Fold in 3/4 cup of the crushed Butterfinger candy bars into the peanut butter mixture.
  5. Assemble the pie: Spread the filling evenly into the chilled cookie crust.
  6. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm. This is a key step for a solid no-bake pie.
  7. Prepare topping (optional): If using, beat the cold heavy cream and 1 tablespoon of powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe this whipped cream over the chilled pie.
  8. Garnish and serve: Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of crushed Butterfinger candy bars over the top of the pie just before serving. Slice and enjoy this easy peanut butter pie.

Notes

  • For the best results in achieving a fluffy peanut butter filling, ensure your cream cheese is truly at room temperature before mixing.
  • If you do not have Oreo cookies, you can substitute with graham cracker crumbs, using 1 1/2 cups of crumbs mixed with 1/4 cup of melted butter for a different crust flavor.
  • This make ahead dessert tastes best when chilled for at least 6 hours, allowing the filling to fully set.
