    Peanut butter pie recipe

    You guys, this peanut butter pie recipe is no joke. Like, a serious game changer. Rich, creamy, dreamy, peanut-buttery, Oreo-cookie-crusty happiness (crusty?! I don't know, just bear with me haha!). I can barely handle it. And then, to bring it over the top, I've added mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. I know.

    If you love chocolate and peanut butter, this is the peanut butter pie recipe for you! It's super rich, so you don't need a huge piece, which is great because you can feed more people that way. And best of all, its no-bake! Chocolate peanut butter pie

    Tips for making a no bake peanut butter pie:

    • Since this is technically a chocolate peanut butter pie, I used an Oreo cookie crust. I went the pre-made route because I never seem to have good lucky making my own crumb crusts. Those pre-made crusts are also a huge time saver!
    • Melt the peanut butter a bit before adding it to the mixing bowl. I tested it both ways and while the unmelted version was still delicious, melting the peanut butter makes for a smoother filling.
    • Allow the pie to set for an hour or more. In my opinion it also tastes better chilled.
    • When you're swirling the chocolate sauce, less is more. It's very forgiving in general, but I've found that minimal swirl heed the prettiest swirls.
    • Don't skimp on the Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! Because who doesn't love them?!

    Course Dessert
    Cuisine American
    Servings 8 slices

    Ingredients
      

    • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
    • ½ cup confectioner's sugar
    • 2 ounces cream cheese, softened
    • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
    • 1 pinch kosher salt
    • 1 8 ounce container whipped topping, thawed
    • 1 premade Oreo cooking crust
    • Chocolate sauce
    • ½ bag mini Reese's peanut butter cups, halved or quartered

    Instructions
     

    • Warm the peanut butter in the microwave for around 30 seconds to melt a bit (you can always go longer if it's not pourable).
    • Add the peanut butter into the mixing bowl along with confectioner's sugar, cream cheese, vanilla extract and salt.
    • Beat well for 1-2 minutes until everything is well combined.
    • Beat in the whipped topping until well combined and creamy.
    • Pour the mixture into the Oreo cookie crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
    • Squeeze some chocolate sauce onto the top of the pie (I squeezed it in a swirl) and then take a toothpick and lightly swirl it for a marbling effect. Less is more when it comes to swirling.
    • Put the cut up mini peanut butter cups all around the edges of the pie, near the crust.
    • Refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.

    Notes

    Mini Reese's Peanut Butter cups can usually be found in bags with the ice cream toppings near the freeze section- they're smaller than the Mini Peanut Butter Cups that come wrapped, which are usually sold in the candy section. If the little one's aren't available, you can always buy a bag of the wrapped ones and just chop them a bit smaller.

        Definitely- I bet it will be even better! Just change it out for the same amount (and make sure you measure after you whip it). I hope you enjoy it!
