I’m not a pie maker but I made an exception for this one for a few reasons.
It’s easy. It’s no-bake. And I cheated and used a storebought Oreo cookie crust. Don’t hate me because I like shortcuts and easy desserts. You probably do too.
It’s perfect for Pi Day tomorrow, 3.14
The pie is full of rich peanut butter flavor, it’s salty-and-sweet, and it’s creamy from whipped topping. Oh yes, another shortcut. I love me some Cool Whip.
If you don’t have whipped topping in your area or are opposed to using it, this probably isn’t the pie for you. I don’t recommend using real whipped cream because it will deflate and you’ll have a #piefail on your hands.
Tangy cream cheese adds another flavor dimension and balances the sweetness from the whipped topping. The smooth filling in contrast with the crunchy Oreo cookie crust is a total win.
Peanuts and mini chocolate chips sprinkled on top add even more crunch and texture which we loved.
I appreciate that this pie is served chilled and love rich desserts like brownies or this pie served chilled.
It would be great for (summertime) events because you can make it in advance a couple days in advance, pop it in the fridge, and forget about it.

No-Bake Peanut Butter Silk Oreo Pie
Ingredients
- ¾ cup creamy peanut butter, use Jif, Skippy, etc. and not something that’s ‘natural’ and can separate
- 4 ounces brick-style cream cheese, softened (use full fat so pie sets up)
- 1 cup confectioners’ sugar
- one 8-ounce container frozen whipped topping, thawed
- one 9-inch Oreo crust (6-ounce storebought or scratch
- ⅓ cup honey roasted peanuts, salted peanuts may be substituted
- 3 tablespoons mini semi-sweet chocolate chips
Instructions
- To a large bowl, add the peanut butter, cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar and beat with a handheld electric mixer on low to medium-low speed until small, pebble-sized balls form.
- Add the whipped topping and beat on high speed until smooth, stopping to scrape the bowl as necessary. The mixture is thick and I needed to beat it for about 4 to 5 minutes to get it smooth.
- Turn out into prepared crust (you don’t need to bake the crust if using storebought; if using this scratch crust bake for 10 minutes).
- Evenly sprinkle with the peanuts and mini chocolate chips.
- Cover and refrigerated until set, at least 4 hours (overnight is better). Keep chilled until serving.
- Filling adapted from Taste of Home

I made the recipe for the filling as written but added crushed Oreo’s. Also decorated the top with Cool Whip, Reeses pieces, and melted peanut butter & chocolate. Filling is not overly sweet. Store bought Oreo crust… definitely a timesaver. I’m not a huge peanut butter dessert fan but my son is so hopefully he’ll love it. He saw it in the fridge and got super excited about it.

Thanks for the 5 star review and I’m sure your son will enjoy this!
I made this with gluten free Oreo cookies for the crust, shaved peanut butter cups on top because I didn’t have any mini chocolate chips. It is amazing, easy, and a bug hit with my family!
hey girl- this looks amazing!
Bring on the Cool Whip and the short ingredient list…not to mention peanut butter! Love all your desserts!
Thank you!
OH my god. I feel pretty speechless. I love it!! In general I love no-bake pies like this. They feel just kitschy and retro enough to satisfy the nostalgic part of me, but they stand up in the flavor department–they taste delicious. You’ve inspired me with this one for sure. I love the idea of OREO with pb versus just chocolate – a little different.
You KNOW i’m all over this. I could eat the ENTIRE thing in ONE SITTING!!
You and me both! :)
This sounds like a great birthday treat! I agree with Paula–I try to do *more* homemade food rather than pre-packaged (which is why I troll your site!) but I love having a few easy options up my sleeve.
Easy options, especially desserts for parties, potlucks, you have to bring a dessert to the kid’s school, etc. are always nice, right!
I love no bake pies made with cream cheese and whipped topping–they are a little lighter than cheesecake but still have that flavor. This looks delicious–especially with the peanuts and chips on top! I’m a fan of shortcuts like pre made crusts, rotisserie chicken, and precooked grains! I’d love to make everything from scratch, but life and a lack of time can get in the way.
Life, lack of time, energy, kids, etc…yep they all can get in the way sometimes and that’s why I love shortcuts too :)
This filling was so smooth and creamy yet light enough…so good!
