Ingredients
Chocolate Cookie Crust Oreo Cookie Crumbs
Chocolate Cookie Crumbs- Crumble up chocolate Oreos in a food processor for a fine crumb texture.
Butter- Unsalted butter will be a perfect addition to this pie crust.
No Bake Peanut Butter Filling
Creamy Peanut Butter- Traditional creamy peanut butter is the best way to go. The natural brands or brands that need to be stirred will not work. These will create very grainy pie that will not look or taste great.
Cream Cheese- Full fat cream cheese at room temperature will work the best for this deliciously creamy pie. Substituting for low fat will change the consistency.
Heavy Whipping Cream- Once the peanut butter mixture is combined, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks to create a light and fluffy texture once folded into the peanut butter.
Garnish: Peanut Butter Cups, Mini Peanut Butter Cups, Chocolate Chips, Peanut Butter Chips
