How to make Peanut Butter Cookie Pie
- Start out by making the cookie crust. In a stand mixer, cream the butter, sugar, brown sugar and vanilla together. Add in the egg yolk, then fold in the flour, baking soda and chocolate chips. Bake for 10 minutes. It’s important to not overbake the crust.
- While the cookie crust is cooling, make the peanut butter filling. In a bowl whisk together the peanut butter, milk and powdered sugar. Whisk until smooth and well combined. Add more milk if needed, a teaspoon at a time.
- Next, heat the heavy cream until hot ( about one minute in the microwave). Pour over chopped chocolate and allow to sit for 5 minutes before stirring. Once the chocolate has been combined with the heavy cream, pour over peanut butter filling.
- Chill for 2 hours prior to serving.

Types of Peanut Butter
I used creamy peanut butter for this recipe but you could also try crunchy peanut butter also. I would not recommend using “natural” peanut butter as the peanut butter will likely get oily and separate.
How long will Peanut Butter Pie last?
You can eat this pie up till 3 days after making. Keep in the fridge to preserve freshness. The pie can also be frozen for up to 1 month.
Tips
- Under bake your cookie crust so it’s not too crispy when cutting into
- Add more milk to the filling if it’s too thick.
- Milk Chocolate Chips can be used for the ganache if you prefer.

Hey there Mindy,
Correct, there is no salt in this recipe. The recipe for the the cookie crust is so small that there is really no need for the salt.
