Ingredients You Need For This Recipe

See recipe card below this post for ingredient quantities and full instructions.

• Store-bought chocolate graham cracker crust – You can also use an Oreo crust for added flavor!
• Peanut butter – Creamy peanut butter works best!
• Cream cheese – Add once it’s at room temperature.
• Confectioner’s sugar
• Cool Whip – Also a key ingredient in my Cool Whip Pie!
• Crushed Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
• Mini chocolate chips – Regular sized chocolate chips work fine, too.

Directions:

1. Combine ingredients – In a bowl, combine cream cheese, peanut butter, and confectioners’ sugar. Whip until smooth.
2. Add in whipped cream – Fold in whipped topping and combine well.
3. Pour filling into the pie crust – Pour into the pie shell to fill.
4. Add toppings – Top with crushed up Reese’s cups, chocolate chips, and melted peanut butter.
5. Put it in the refrigerator – Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Topping Variations

Let’s be real…the more toppings, the better. If you want to add on even more toppings, you can.

Some other topping ideas that might be a huge hit are:

• Hot Fudge
• Toasted Coconut
• Peanut Butter Chocolate Chips
• White Chocolate Chips
• Shaved Chocolate
• Whipped Cream
• Drizzled peanut butter mixture
• Fine crumbs of Oreos
• Homemade chocolate ganache topping
• Chopped peanuts

My Tips for Success

• The recipe calls for a pre-made crust but you can make your own using graham cracker crumbs. Just use the recipe on my No-Bake Cheesecake post.
• If you need more than one pie, you can easily double the recipe and add to either two pie shells or one 9×13 dish.
• You may want to freeze this pie and have it as a frozen treat! It’s just as delicious!
• Chill this pie for at least 2 hours to give the flavors time to develop and firm.
• Once your pie is chilled and you are ready to cut, use a large, sharp knife and make cuts across the pie. You may want to clean your knife in-between cuts for the prettiest slices.
• To Freeze:  Cover the pie with plastic wrap and then tightly with foil (to avoid freezer burn).
• To Serve: When ready to serve, remove the peanut butter pie from the freezer and cut it into slices with a sharp knife. 
• Leftovers: Cover any leftovers tightly and return promptly to the fridge or freezer.

See where I’m going with this? The more sweet topping choices, the more you can vary up the outcome and flavor of this easy pie recipe! (And if you love easy pies, try my custard pie recipe too!)
