Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 cup golden brown sugar, packed
Mix-ins
- 10 Oreo cookies
- 10 Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups
Toppings and Crust
- 1 1/2 cups Cool Whip
- 1 Oreo pie crust
Instructions
- Cream the base mixture: In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to blend together the cream cheese, smooth peanut butter, and golden brown sugar until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Prepare the mix-ins: Place the Oreo cookies into one Ziploc bag, and the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups into another separate Ziploc bag.
- Crush the cookies and peanut butter cups: Using a heavy bottomed pot or a rolling pin, gently crush both the Oreos and peanut butter cups inside their bags until they become small pieces.
- Combine half of the crushed mix-ins with the filling: Pour half of the crushed Oreos and half of the peanut butter cups into the cream cheese mixture along with 1/2 cup of Cool Whip. Fold everything gently together using a rubber spatula until evenly mixed.
- Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the combined filling evenly into the Oreo pie crust and smooth out the top.
- Add the Cool Whip topping: Spread the remaining 1 cup of Cool Whip evenly over the cream cheese mixture in the pie crust.
- Top with remaining crushed mix-ins: Sprinkle the rest of the crushed Oreos and peanut butter cups over the Cool Whip layer to create a decorative topping.
- Chill the cheesecake: Refrigerate the assembled cheesecake for at least 2 hours to allow it to set properly before slicing.
- Serve: Slice the cheesecake and enjoy this creamy, no-bake peanut butter and Oreo delight.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing for a smoother texture.
- Using a sealed plastic bag to crush cookies helps to contain mess and evenly break the pieces.
- You can substitute the Oreo pie crust for a traditional graham cracker crust if preferred.
- Chilling time can be extended to overnight for firmer slices.
- Serving with fresh fruit or a drizzle of chocolate sauce complements the rich flavors.
