Ingredients
  

For the Crust:
  • 24 cookies Oreo cookies
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
For the Filling:
  • 8 ounces full-fat cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter classic, not all-natural
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon Morton kosher salt
  • 2 containers Cool Whip whipped topping 8 ounces each, thawed
  • ½ to 1 cup chopped Reese's cups

Equipment

  • Food processor
  • Mixing bowls
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • 9-inch pie dish
  • Rubber spatula

Method
 

Instructions:
  1. Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a food processor, crush the Oreo cookies until they reach a fine crumb consistency. Combine them in a mixing bowl with the melted butter and stir until it resembles wet sand.
  2. Step 2: Press the Oreo mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
  3. Step 3: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add in the peanut butter, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and kosher salt, mixing until well combined and creamy.
  4. Step 4: Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip until everything is combined, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
  5. Step 5: Stir in the chopped Reese's cups, reserving a few pieces for topping later.
  6. Step 6: Pour the peanut butter filling into the cooled Oreo crust, spreading it evenly.
  7. Step 7: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible.
  8. Step 8: Once chilled, top with reserved Reese's cups, slice, and serve with extra Cool Whip on the side.
