Description
A rich and creamy no-bake dessert featuring a smooth peanut butter filling and a crunchy cookie crust, topped with peanut butter cups.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups of crushed no-bake cookies
- 1/2 cup of butter, melted
- 1 cup of creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 8 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of whipped cream or whipped topping
- Peanut butter cups, for topping
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed no-bake cookies and melted butter until the mixture resembles damp sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of your pie dish, forming an even layer.
- Make the filling: In another bowl, add the creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and softened cream cheese. Using a hand mixer, beat until smooth and fluffy, for about 3-4 minutes.
- Incorporate the whipped cream: Gently fold in the whipped cream until just combined, careful not to overmix.
- Pour into the crust: Pour the peanut butter mixture into the prepared crust and spread it evenly.
- Chill to set: Cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for at least 240 minutes.
- Add toppings: Sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups over the top when ready to serve.
Notes
