This easy no bake peanut butter pie has an Oreo crust with a creamy peanut butter filling made WITHOUT cream cheese all topped with a silky chocolate ganache and chopped Reese's.
Use a food processor and process the Oreo cookies until they are crumbs. Add melted butter and process again so the butter is all incorporated.
Press crumbs into a pie pan.
For the filling:
In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat the peanut butter, butter and powdered sugar together until well combined.
Add cool whip or whipped cream and beat again until fully combined.
Pour into the prepared Oreo rust.
For the chocolate ganache:
Pour chocolate chips in a large heat proof bowl.
Heat the 1/2 cup whipping cream in a sauce pan until it comes to a simmer.
Pour the whipping cream over the chocolate chips in the bowl and allow to sit for 4-5 minutes. Stir until the chocolate chips and whipping cream become one smooth mixture.
Pour over the pie and top with chopped Reese's.
Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
You can use homemade whipped cream instead of using Cool whip in the peanut butter filling.You cannot replace the heavy whipping cream used for the chocolate ganache on top.
Can this pie be frozen?
You can make the pie ahead and freeze it to eat later by covering the pie really well with plastic wrap. To thaw, place in the fridge overnight still covered.
