It has all real ingredients, well except the Oreos, and made without Cool Whip.
Warning: This is not one of those healthy recipes I post, so please don't get mad at me!
Yesterday I was bad.. Very bad..You see my kids were gone to my Sister-in-laws, the husband was at work, and I was stuck home alone..
It was not a good thing.. Who am I kidding it was great!
I should have been doing the ever dread piles upon piles of laundry but instead I whipped up one of these No Bake Peanut Butter Pies.. I knew I needed an Oreo cookie crust, but that possibly couldn't be enough chocolate right?No defiantly not enough!
It needed a layer of fudge too, yes it definitely needed a layer of chocolate fudge and a peanut butter filling!
I bring you Peanut Butter Fudge Pie with an Oreo cookie crust! Heaven!
Here's how I make my No Bake Peanut Butter Pie.
Crush 25 whole Oreo cookies until fine crumbs.
I used the food processor but this can also be done in a large Ziploc bag.
Mix 1/4 cup Melted Butter with Oreo Cookie Crumbs until well combined.
Press Oreo cookie crumbs into the bottom of a pie pan using a measuring cup bottom to level crust and push crust up the sides of pan and into the corners.
It should look about like this. Bake your Oreo Cookie Crust in a 350 degree oven for 5-6 minutes.
When done allow crust to cool.
To make the Chocolate Fudge Layer in a small saucepan combine:
- 1/2 cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 2 tablespoons Light Corn Syrup
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
- 2 teaspoons Cocoa Powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Instant Coffee Granules.
Add:
- a pinch of Sea Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
Pour Chocolate Fudge layer over Oreo Cookie Crust and place in freezer for 20 minutes while making peanut butter filling.
Sine this is a No Bake Peanut Butter Fudge Pie without Cool Whip we are going to use gelatin so the pie holds its shape when cut.
In a very small sauce pan add:
- 4 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Unflavored Gelatin
Place pan over very low heat and watch carefully. Cook until gelatin is clear and runny. On my stove this happens in less the 2 minutes. Do not walk away or you might burn gelatin. If gelatin burns you have to start over.
Beat 1 cups heavy whipping cream for peanut butter layer until thick, creamy and whipped. Remove to a small bowl and set aside.
In mixing bowl add:
- 8 ounces Cream Cheese, Room Temperature
- 1 cup All Natural Creamy Peanut Butter
Add:
- 3/4 cup Powdered Sugar, Sifted
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Beat until light and fluffy.
Turn mixer to low and pour in cooked gelatin.
Turn to medium speed and beat until gelatin is fully incorporated and mixture is light and fluffy, scrape sides of bowl as needed.
Using a whisk add 1/3 of the beaten whip cream and fold in until almost incorporated.
Repeat with another 1/3, and then add last 1/3 of whipped cream.
Fold in whipped cream until fully incorporated.
Place peanut butter mixture over the fudge layer. Use a knife to smooth the top of pie and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or until cold.
No Bake Peanut Butter Pie with a layer of chocolate fudge is one of those pies that only gets better as it refrigerates, so it's great made ahead of time
Garnish No Bake Peanut Butter Pie with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream and an Oreo cookie if your heart so desires.

Hello? Beyond yum! Peanut butter and chocolate are my fav combo but I love the idea of using the oreo crust. Totally decadent and deliciuos.
Wow! This looks really good! Pinning! Found you at weekend potluck ;)
