I come bearing gifts today. Gifts in the form of peanut butter and chocolate. You’re welcome.
Today I’ve got an incredible No Bake Peanut Butter Cheesecake Pie recipe for you that just won’t quit! See if you can eat just one slice! Creamy, crunchy, delightfully rich and no bake too – all on an OREO crust!
If you haven’t figured it out by now, peanut butter is my thang. Granted, it’s usually enjoyed in the form of a Reese’s recipe (cookies, brownies, bars, etc.), but it’s the peanut butter and chocolate combination that really revs my engine. #whatdoesthatevenmean
Peanut butter pie is a thing of beauty and this peanut butter cheesecake pie is a thing of dreams. My dreams. My peanut butter and chocolate filled dreams…
It starts with an OREO crust. It’s kinda awesome and fabulously easy. I have a whole tutorial on the perfect OREO cookie pie crust that you can check out too! This is the first time I’ve used an OREO crust on any of the pie recipes on my blog – what took me so long?
Once the crust has been made we can focus on the peanut butter cheesecake filling that will ROCK.YOUR.WORLD. Not even kidding here people. It’s glorious. I used crunchy peanut butter because it’s funner. (I know that’s not a word but it should be…) The peanut butter and cream cheese get beaten until perfectly light and fluffy and then it’s a bit of vanilla, some powdered sugar and then the final step is folding in the Cool Whip (whipped cream would also work – real cream).
It’s luscious. It’s crunchy. It’s creamy. It’s undeniably going to be in your mouth in short order because I am telling you – you simply have to make this pie.
Before I added the peanut butter cheesecake filling to the pie I did one more thing…something naughty. I added a layer of hot fudge sauce on top of the pie crust. Because, duh, peanut butter and chocolate? They’re totally BFFs.
Let the pie chill for a couple hours and then do whatever you want to decorate the top. I whipped up some heavy cream and then did some little decorations and then sprinkled the whole thing with more OREO cookie crumbs.
OR, you could just start shoveling this awesomeness into our pie hole. That would be smarter.
Once I had the pictures I needed, I promptly ate a slice for lunch. With a glass of milk. Totally nailed it on getting in that protein.

Hello! I have just made this pie and it’s going to be hard to stop myself from eating the whole thing tonight. I used a natural organic peanut butter that I was trying to get rid of — my partner wouldn’t touch it because he didn’t like the natural separation of oil… That very thing made me a little nervous, I stirred it well but I was still worried this would turn out oily. Actually it’s perfect! Wonderful recipe, wouldn’t change a thing!

Hi Trish,
Just FYI, it looks like the link to the Oreo crust doesn’t work for me!
Otherwise, SO EXCITED to try this recipe!!
Katerina @ Diethood says
Oh good GOD that looks amazing! The height of that awesome filling!
Nancy P.@thebittersideofsweet says
I am kind of all over peanut butter right now too! Love that this is no bake!
Shawn @ I Wash You Dry says
I’ll take a slice of this any day! Dang girl!
Erin says
There is no better combo! I need a dessert for tomorrow… This might be it!
Patricia @ Grab a Plate says
This really IS a gift – thanks 🙂 This sounds too amazing, and I’m sure I’d have a piece for lunch (and breakfast), too! Awesome!
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
LOL! You’re so welcome Patricia 🙂 Thank YOU!
Amy @ Accidental Happy Baker says
Do you ever see a recipe and think to yourself, “hmm who can I convince to make this for me?” LOL. My mother in law is always trying new cheesecakes and loves peanut butter. This might just end up in her inbox with a little suggestion (read shameless begging) for her to make it for me.
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
I like how you think Amy! This is definitely a recipe worthy of shameless begging – I know I would!
Brittany says
This looks delicious! It’s a good thing my son is allergic to peanuts, or this would be in my house tonight and I might eat way more than is good for me! 😉
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Oh no! You need to have a friend make it for you and then go out for a mommy night 🙂
Christie says
Cheesecake is my daughter’s favorite dessert. She would love your cheesecake pie especially with the Oreo crust.
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
You have to make this for her then Christie – it’s only right 🙂
Kelly - Life Made Sweeter says
This pie incredible, Trish! Peanut butter and Oreos totally belong together! Love that this is no bake too!
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
They sure do Kelly! I’m loving them together in this pie! Thank you!
Laura @ Laura's Culinary Adventures says
That filling looks so creamy and fantastic!
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
It so is Laura! I can’t wait to make this pie again…and then not tell anyone I ate it, an eat it all by myself. Cause I’m selfish like that 🙂
Jessica @ A Kitchen Addiction says
Whoa, this cheesecake is incredible! Love everything about it!
Trish - Mom On Timeout says
Thanks so much Jessica!
Jennifer @ Show Me the Yummy says
I have no words. All of my favorite things in one dessert! 🙂
