Ingredients

Scale
  • 24 chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos), finely crushed (about 250g)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick, 115g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (250g) creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup (125g) powdered sugar
  • 8 oz (225g) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed (or about 3 cups homemade whipped cream)
  • 12–16 mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, chopped (plus more for garnish, optional)
  • Chocolate syrup or melted chocolate chips, for drizzling (optional)

Instructions

  1. Crush 24 chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand and holds together when pressed.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill in the fridge for at least 15 minutes to set.
  4. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy (about 1-2 minutes).
  5. Add the creamy peanut butter and powdered sugar. Beat until well combined and creamy.
  6. Fold in the thawed whipped topping (or homemade whipped cream) with a spatula until no streaks remain and the filling is light and fluffy.
  7. Spoon the peanut butter mixture into the chilled crust and smooth the top with an offset spatula or butter knife.
  8. Sprinkle the top generously with chopped mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. Drizzle with chocolate syrup or melted chocolate chips if desired.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
  10. Slice with a sharp knife (wiping between slices for clean cuts) and serve cold. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes if too firm.

Notes

For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free chocolate sandwich cookies. For dairy-free, use vegan cream cheese, coconut whipped topping, and plant-based butter. Chill the pie thoroughly for clean slices. You can make this pie up to 2 days ahead. For extra chocolate, add mini chocolate chips to the filling. The pie is best served cold and gets even creamier after a night in the fridge.
