Ingredients
- 12 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1 1/4 cups creamy peanut butter
- 1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- Topping opt: crushed candies, mini Reese’s peanut butter cups, peanut butter chips
Oreo Crust:
- 30 Oreo cookies, whole

Instructions
For the Crust:
- Place Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become small crumbs.
- Stir in the melted butter until the crumbs are well-coated.
- Press the mixture firmly into a 9.5-inch deep dish pie plate, ensuring it covers the bottom and goes up the sides of the dish.
- Refrigerate the crust for 1 hour, or if you’re in a hurry, you can freeze it for 20-30 minutes before adding the filling.
For the Filling:
- In a mixing bowl, mix together the cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth.
- Add powdered sugar and vanilla to the mixture, and mix until everything is smooth and well combined.
- In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream with mixers until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until fully combined.
- Pour the filling into the cooled pie shell and cover it gently with plastic wrap.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least around 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
- Optionally, top with additional whipped cream and sprinkle with crushed candy or candy bars before serving.
