A rich and creamy no-bake peanut butter cup pie featuring a smooth peanut butter and cream cheese filling, set in a crunchy cookie crust, and topped with chopped peanut butter cups and optional hot fudge drizzle. Perfectly chilled for a decadent treat without turning on the oven.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 Nutter Butter Crust, Oreo Crust, or Graham Cracker Crust

Filling

  • 8 ounces (226g) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • ⅓ cup (89g) peanut butter (no stir peanut butter only; not natural)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (8-ounce) container whipped topping
  • 2 cups peanut butter cups, chopped (divided)

Topping

  • Hot fudge ice cream topping (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the cream cheese mixture: Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth using a hand mixer. This creates a creamy base with no lumps.
  2. Add sugar and peanut butter: Mix in granulated sugar and peanut butter, then add vanilla extract. Continue beating until the mixture is smooth and fully combined.
  3. Fold in whipped topping and peanut butter cups: Gently fold the whipped topping into the peanut butter mixture for a light texture. Stir in 1½ cups of the chopped peanut butter cups evenly throughout the filling.
  4. Assemble the pie: Spoon the prepared filling into the pre-made crust, spreading it evenly.
  5. Add final toppings: Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup chopped peanut butter cups on top, then optionally drizzle with hot fudge ice cream topping for extra decadence.
  6. Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours to set before slicing and serving.
  7. Storage: Keep the pie refrigerated for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to one month for longer storage.

Notes

  • Use no-stir peanut butter to ensure proper texture and consistency in the filling.
  • Choose your preferred crust type such as Nutter Butter, Oreo, or Graham Cracker to customize flavor and texture.
  • The pie must be chilled adequately to set properly since it is no-bake.
  • Optional hot fudge topping adds richness but can be omitted.
  • Freeze leftovers to maintain freshness if not consumed within a few days.
