Simple Ingredients Needed

Homemade Oreo Crust Ingredients

  1. Oreo Cookies : Use regular Oreo cookies and not the double-stuf cookies. 
  2. Salted Butter : If using unsalted butter, you will want to add about 1/4 teaspoon sea salt in with the crumbled Oreos and melted butter. 

Peanut Butter Pie Filling Ingredients 

  1. Cream Cheese : Use full-fat cream cheese for the best thick & creamy texture, and the best taste. Make sure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in your peanut butter filling. Leave the cream cheese out at room temperature for up to 2 hours before using. 
  2. Creamy Peanut Butter : Regular creamy peanut butter works best here – I recommend staying away from all-natural peanut butter or any peanut butter that has that thick oil layer on top of it. These ones tend to make pies and other baked goods not as smooth and luscious. 
  3. Light Brown Sugar
  4. Sea Salt
  5. Cool Whip
  6. Vanilla Extract

Garnish Ingredients (Optional)

  1. Oreo Cookies : Use mini Oreo cookies or additional crumbled Oreo cookies to decorate the top of the pie. 
  2. Whipped Cream : Use the store-bought spray whipped cream or make your own homemade whipped cream using heavy whipping cream + powdered sugar. See notes in the recipe card for more specific details.

Make The Oreo Cookie Chocolate Crust : In a food processor, add the Oreo cookies and melted butter, and pulse until it turns into fine crumbs. 

Firmly and evenly press the Oreo cookie crust mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Let the crust sit in the refrigerator while you prepare the creamy peanut butter filling.

Make The Peanut Butter Pie Filling : In a large mixing bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese, peanut butter, light brown sugar, and salt until very smooth, until it looks whipped & fluffy, and it’s lighter in color. About 2 minutes. 

Stir in the Cool Whip and vanilla extract and mix until fluffy and evenly combined. 

Spread the peanut butter filling evenly into the Oreo cookie crust and smooth out the top.

Refrigerate & Serve : Cover with plastic wrap or a lid, and refrigerate for at least 6 hours (or up to overnight), before serving. 

Garnish the pie with additional whipped cream and mini Oreos, or additional crumbled Oreo cookies.

How To Store A No Bake Peanut Butter Oreo Pie

Store the pie, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. I use a 9-inch pie dish that has a lid and store it covered that way; it’s really simple. You could also cover your pie dish with plastic wrap or aluminum foil, or remove leftover individual slices to an airtight container for storage.

Substitutions & Ingredient Notes

  • Oreo Cookies : Chocolate graham crackers or peanut butter sandwich cookies, such as Nutter Butters, can be used instead of Oreo cookies. Another option is to use peanut butter Oreo cookies for the crust to really make it a peanut butter lovers dream dessert. 
  • Cream Cheese : I highly recommend using full-fat cream cheese and not the reduced-fat or lite stuff. The reduced-fat cream cheese has more water in it, so it will make the pie not as thick and creamy, and rich tasting. I also recommend using the Philadelphia name brand because it tastes so much better than the store brand. Of course, the store brand will work just fine if that’s what you prefer. 
  • Brown Sugar : Powdered sugar can be used instead for a smoother less caramelized sweetness. If using powdered sugar, only use 1 cup. 
  • Cool Whip : Homemade whipped cream works as a substitute for store-bought whipped topping. Beat 1 cup heavy whipping cream + 3 tablespoons powdered sugar in a bowl until stiff peaks form. Use this in place of Cool Whip when called for in the recipe.

Pro Tips From The Kitchen

  • Use Room temperature Cream Cheese : This helps create a smooth, lump-free filing. Cold cream cheese can leave small bits that won’t fully blend. Leave the cream cheese out at room temperature for up to 2 hours. Another option is to unwrap it and place it on a microwave-safe plate, and microwave for about 20 seconds just until softened but not warmed at all. 
  • Chill The Crust : Refrigerating the crust before filling helps it firm up and hold together when adding in the creamy peanut butter mixture. 
  • Mix The Peanut Butter Filling Thoroughly : Beat the peanut butter, cream cheese, and brown sugar very well before adding in the whipped topping. The mixture should be fluffy looking, pale in color, and looked very whipped and light. This ensures the smoothest texture and it will also ensure that the brown sugar doesn’t leave a heavy grainy texture in the filling. 
  • Mixing Tip : The peanut butter filling might be quite thick, so it may take you a couple of minutes for it to combine with the whipped topping. Keep working it and gently stirring and mixing and it will eventually come together. You want to make sure it’s well mixed and combined before filling the pie crust with it. 
  • Refrigerator Time Is Important : The pie needs at minimum 6 hours in the fridge before serving. I always recommend refrigerating no bake pies overnight for the best results. This helps the pie firm up so it slices cleanly and hold its shape. It also allows time for the flavors to blend and the pie will taste much better. 
  • Garnishes : Garnish the pie just before serving. Add extra oreo cookies and whipped cream on top for a fancy presentation, or eat the pie as is, and it’s still amazing. You can use additional Cool Whip, use store-bought spray whipped cream, or make your own homemade whipped cream (beat 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream + 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until stiff peaks form).

Notes

Salt : I use sea salt or kosher salt; you really just need a very small pinch in the crust and the peanut butter filling, just to round out the flavors more. Or omit it entirely if you prefer.
Oreo Cookies : Chocolate graham crackers or peanut butter sandwich cookies, such as Nutter Butters, can be used instead of Oreo cookies. Another option is to use peanut butter Oreo cookies for the crust to really make it a peanut butter lovers dream dessert.
