Ingredients

Scale
  • 25–28 whole Oreo cookies (about 250g, classic chocolate flavor, filling included)
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick, 115g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup (240g) creamy peanut butter (shelf-stable, like Jif or Skippy)
  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • Extra whipped cream (for topping, optional)
  • Chopped roasted peanuts (for topping, optional)
  • Mini chocolate chips or shaved chocolate (for topping, optional)
  • Chocolate syrup or melted chocolate (for topping, optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Oreo Crust: Place 25-28 Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Alternatively, crush in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin.
  2. Add melted butter to the crumbs and mix until evenly moistened.
  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 20 minutes.
  4. Make the Whipped Cream: In a medium bowl, beat cold heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form (about 2-3 minutes). Set aside in the fridge.
  5. Prepare the Peanut Butter Filling: In a large bowl, beat together peanut butter and softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy (about 2 minutes).
  6. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Beat until well combined.
  7. Fold in half of the whipped cream gently with a rubber spatula to lighten the filling. Add the remaining whipped cream and fold until no streaks remain.
  8. Spoon the peanut butter filling into the chilled Oreo crust and smooth the top.
  9. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  10. Before serving, top with extra whipped cream, chopped peanuts, mini chocolate chips, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup as desired.
  11. For clean slices, dip a sharp knife in hot water and wipe dry between cuts. Serve chilled.

Notes

For best results, use shelf-stable creamy peanut butter and room temperature cream cheese. Chill the pie for at least 4 hours (overnight is best) for clean slices. The pie can be made gluten-free or dairy-free with simple swaps. Store covered in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 2 months. For extra chocolate, add a ganache layer or chocolate chips. Avoid natural peanut butter as it can cause the filling to separate.
