No Bake Peanut Butter Pie
Peanut butter pie is a creamy and delicious dessert! What's also great about this particular pie is that it is no bake. 🙂
You can also dress up this peanut butter pie by adding chocolate chips and drizzling some melted peanut butter on top.
Seriously, how could you resist a dessert this good?
Peanut Butter Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
1 cup powdered sugar
1 8oz package cream cheese
1 cup creamy peanut butter
1 16oz container of cool whip
1 (9 inch) graham cracker crust
Directions:
The first step in making this peanut butter pie is to add the powdered sugar and cream cheese into a mixing bowl. You will then want to whip the two together for at least 3-5 minutes or until creamy in texture.
The next step is adding in the creamy peanut butter. Again, you will want to mix this for a few minutes. It will resemble that of a peanut butter cookie dough.
The final step to making this peanut butter pie is to add in the cool whip. Start out by adding in half of the container. When this has been mixed thoroughly, add in the other half of the cool whip.
Scoop the mixture into a graham cracker crust. You can serve right away or referigerate it for an hour to make the slices come out easier!
(Optional) If you are really wanted to wow your guests, you can melt some peanut butter and drizzle it on top of a slice of peanut butter pie. Also, you can top it with some chocolate chips!

I was able to fill two chocolate pie shells for my daughter's fund raiser. It makes a lot of filling. I also topped my pies with some mini chocolate chips. I'm sure they will enjoy. Thank you!
Berta Pauly
Very tasty and so easy to make..thank you!👍
Kathi
Super easy to make and oh so delicious. I added some mini chocolate chips to the filling prior to pouring into the pie crust. Then I drizzled some melted chocolate chips over the top - super yummy 😋. This will become a go to recipe when I need something quick!

I just served this to my family. They all loved it. Thanks so much.
Brandi Reichert
Your add on sound great. Thank you.

I want to try this but I have a couple of questions.
Should the cream cheese be cold or room temperature?
Should the cool whip be right from the freezer or should it be let to defrost a bit in the refrigerator?
How long can this be kept in the refrigerator before serving? In other words can it be made the day before or the morning of?
Thank you,
Joanna Stephens
The cream cheese should be cold, but the cool whip should be in the refrigerator for at least a day. Frozen cool whip doesn't have the right consistency. As far as making it ahead of time, you can definitely make this the day before. I usually keep it in the finished pie in the freezer and then about 3 hours to serving, I place it in the refrigerator. Hope this helps Donna!
Donna
Oh dear, I of course have done the exact opposite and I need the desert for tonight.
Oh well! I'll have to fast track the cooling of the cool whip and hope for the best. 😬

Before I put the peanut butter filling in the graham Cracker Crust, I took a jar of Hot Fudge Ice Cream topping heated it up in the microwave and put a layer of this over the bottom of the crust. I then placed it in the fridge to chill, then I put my peanut butter filling in the crust. Heat the fudge topping up again and drizzle over the top of the pie. This is really good.
Jess
This looks so delicious and I can't wait to try it! Can I use heavy cream instead of cool whip? Should I whip it up first?
Joanna Stephens
Hi Jess, heavy cream should work, but you will need about half as much. Since the recipe calls for 16oz of cool whip, you will need 8oz of heavy cream.
As far as whipping it up first, it would speed up the process, but you could add it directly in. It will just take longer to whip up to the right consistency. Hope this helps!

Made this no bake peanut butter pie today. It looks delicious and instead of drizzling peanut butter drizzling, I put mini chips inside as well as on top! Thanks for sharing 👍
Lorna

Jen
Hi can I use chunky pb, that’s all I have on had & this looks so yummy
Thank you
Joanna Stephens
Hi Jen, yes you can use chunky peanut butter! My suggestion would be to work it with a spoon so it's fairly smooth when you mix it into the rest of the ingredients.
Jennifer
I did it! Turned out AH-mazinggg
