Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs (about 24 cookies)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • Optional topping: Chocolate syrup or mini peanut butter cups

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a medium 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 base: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the peanut butter and beat until fully combined.
  3. Add sweetener and flavor: Gradually beat in the powdered sugar until the mixture is smooth. Mix in the vanilla extract.
  4. Fold in whipped topping: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until no streaks remain and the filling is uniform and fluffy. Do not overmix.
  5. Assemble the pie: Spoon the peanut butter filling evenly into the chilled Oreo crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is firm.
  7. Serve: Before serving, top with chocolate syrup or chopped peanut butter cups, if desired. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • For a graham cracker crust, substitute 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs for the Oreo crumbs and add 2 tablespoons of sugar to the mix before adding the butter.
  • If you prefer a richer flavor, use 1 cup of creamy peanut butter and 1/2 cup of crunchy peanut butter in the filling.
  • This pie is best made ahead of time, as it requires significant chilling time to set properly.
