Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs finely crushed
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter melted

For the filling:

  • 8 ounces cream cheese at room temperature
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup confectioners sugar
  • 2 tablespoons half-n-half
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream

For the topping:

  • Mini peanut butter cups candy

Instructions

For the crust:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix together the cookie crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove crust from oven and cool completely on a wire rack.

For the filling:

  1. In a large bowl, add the cream cheese and peanut butter. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and peanut butter until combined and smooth. Add the sugar and beat until fluffy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the half-n-half and vanilla and beat until combined and the mixture is smooth.
  2. In a separate medium bowl, beat the whipping cream until you have soft peaks. Use a rubber spatula to fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until just combined.
  3. Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spread it out evenly, and smooth the top. Cover loosely and refrigerate for about 4 hours or until firm. Decorate the top with the mini peanut butter cups. Serve and enjoy! Refrigerate leftovers.
