Pie Crust:
- 25 peanut butter sandwich cookies
- 5 Tbsp butter, melted
Creamy Filling:
- 1 8-oz package cream cheese, room temperature
- 2 c confectioners’ sugar
- 1 ½ c creamy peanut butter (Crunchy peanut butter can be used in place of smooth peanut butter for a crunchier texture)

- 3-5 peanut butter sandwich cookies, coarsely-chopped (for garnish)
Instructions:
Generously grease a 9-inch pie pan.
Prepare the crust. In a medium bowl, crush 25 peanut butter cookies using a pastry cutter or a food processor into fine crumbs.
Add 5 Tbsp melted butter to the crushed cookies, and mix well.
Press the cookie mixture evenly into the greased pie pan.
Prepare the filling. In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese and powdered sugar using a sturdy whisk or electric mixer.
Add 2 c creamy peanut butter and 1 c milk. Mix well.
Slowly fold in the whipped topping until the filling is well-combined.
Spoon the peanut butter mixture into the prepared crust.
Garnish old-fashioned peanut butter pie with 3-5 coarsely-chopped peanut butter sandwich cookies, and sprinkle to the top of the pie.
The last thing you need to do is wrap your no-bake peanut butter pie in plastic wrap and freeze for 3 hours to allow the pie to set.
Slice and serve immediately.
- Store uneaten, covered pie in the freezer for up to 2 months. Thaw frozen pie in the refrigerator.

Recipe ingredient list says 1.5 cups peanut butter, but instructions says add 2 cups--which is correct?
I have the same question, 11/2 or 2c peanut butter, it could make or ruin the whole filling .
