Peanut Butter Oreo Pie (Printable)

A luscious peanut butter cream filling in a crunchy chocolate Oreo crust, crowned with sweet whipped cream and cookie pieces.

# What You Need:

→ Oreo Crust

01 - 24 Oreo cookies
02 - 5 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

→ Peanut Butter Filling

03 - 1 cup creamy peanut butter
04 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
05 - 1 cup powdered sugar
06 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream

→ Topping

07 - 1 cup heavy whipping cream
08 - 2 tbsp powdered sugar
09 - 4 Oreo cookies, coarsely crushed

# Steps:

01 - Preheat oven to 350°F. Crush Oreo cookies (with filling) in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Mix with melted butter until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then cool completely.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, beat peanut butter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add powdered sugar and beat until incorporated. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the peanut butter mixture until completely blended.
03 - Spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the cooled Oreo crust. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
04 - Whip remaining heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar to stiff peaks. Spread or pipe whipped cream over the chilled pie. Garnish with crushed Oreo cookies.
05 - Slice and enjoy cold. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator.

# Expert Hints:

01 -
  • The contrast between that crisp chocolate crust and impossibly smooth peanut butter filling is pure magic
  • This pie comes together faster than you can watch an episode of your favorite show
  • Your guests will literally ask for the recipe before they even finish their first slice
02 -
  • Trying to spread filling onto a warm crust will instantly melt everything into a puddle, so patience during cooling time is absolutely required
  • Overwhipping the heavy cream turns it into butter, so stop the moment those peaks stand up straight
  • This pie needs a full 2 hours to set properly and cutting into it early will ruin all your hard work
03 -
  • Use a glass pie dish so you can see that gorgeous Oreo crust through the sides
  • Press the crust mixture up the sides using the bottom of a measuring cup for perfectly even thickness
  • Fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture by hand instead of using a mixer to keep everything light and airy
