Scale

For the crust:

  • 1½ cups (150g) chocolate cookie crumbs (Oreos or chocolate graham crackers)
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • Pinch of salt

For the filling:

  • 8 oz (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup (190g) creamy peanut butter
  • ½ cup (60g) powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. Make crust: Mix cookie crumbs, melted butter, and salt. Press firmly into bottom and up sides of a 9″ pie dish. Chill 10 minutes.
  2. Make filling: In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy (~2–3 min).
  3. Fold in whipped cream: Gently fold in whipped cream (or Cool Whip) until fully incorporated and airy.
  4. Assemble: Spoon filling into chilled crust. Smooth top with a spatula.
  5. Chill at least 2 hours (preferably 4+ hours) to set.
  6. Garnish before serving with whipped cream, crushed peanuts, chocolate, or a pinch of sea salt.
💡 Pro Tip: For extra flair, press mini peanut butter cups into the filling before chilling!
