Snickers Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie
A decadent no-bake pie featuring layers of peanut butter, chocolate, and caramel, inspired by the classic Snickers bar.
Equipment
- 1 9-inch pie pan
- 1 electric mixer
- 1 Mixing Bowl large
Ingredients
Crust
- 2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Toppings
- 1 cup chopped Snickers bars
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup chocolate ganache
Instructions
Preparation
- Combine chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a bowl. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan to form an even crust. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and peanut butter together until smooth using an electric mixer. Gradually add powdered sugar, mixing until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until well combined.
- Spread the peanut butter filling evenly over the chilled crust. Sprinkle chopped Snickers bars over the top of the filling, pressing them slightly into the surface.
- Drizzle caramel sauce over the top of the pie. If desired, spread a layer of chocolate ganache on top for extra richness. Return the pie to the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set.
- Once chilled, slice the pie into 8 equal pieces. Serve with additional caramel sauce or whipped cream, if desired.
- Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. For best results, consume within the first 3 days.
