Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

Simple and Easy is the type of recipe this delicious peanut butter pie is. That’s it, simple and easy. With just a handful of ingredients, that you most likely have laying around the house and a big sweet tooth is all you need to finish off this recipe.

Peanut Butter has been a favorite of mine since forever, anything peanut butter you name it. And now at my ripe old age of not telling you, my choice of dessert is usually anything with peanut butter...and chocolate. 

This is a great summer and fall pie and honestly it’s good for anytime of year. That’s just the truth. 

I took this pie recipe from the Pioneer Woman and tweaked it a bit to my own liking...let me know how you like it. 

Here are the ingredients for this chocolatey, peanut buttery pie:

1 cup creamy peanut butter 

1 8oz package of thawed Cool whip

1 cup of Powdered Sugar 

20 Oreo cookies 

4 Tbsp of Melted Butter

I’ve personally used the gluten free oreo cookies, if you haven’t tried it and are wondering what it tastes like, it tastes like the original oreos. Going gluten free is something that i decided to do a couple of years ago for health reasons and has helped a lot. But no worries, this is not a gluten free only food blog. I’m here to bring you good, wholesome, delicious food that everyone can eat! 

So back to this peanut butter pie, yummmm!

Get a 9 or 10in pie dish

In a food processor, pulse the chocolate sandwich cookies

Melt the butter and add it to cookie crumbs in the food processor

Pulse a couple of times to mix ingredients

Pour ingredients in the pie dish- even out the crumbs to create a nice and even crust

In a mixer bowl, add peanut butter, powdered sugar and mix together till smooth 

Add cool whip and beat it till smooth, scrape the sides

Pour the mix into the chocolate crusted pie dish

Sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups on top, chocolate sauce, whipped cream and anything else you think would be an absolute add-on to this decadent pie. Place the pie in the fridge to chill for at least 3 hours, the longer it stays in the refrigerator the better it is. If you’re making it for an event, I would make it the day before.

And it is ready to be served!
