Ingredients
Scale
1 3/4 cups crushed Oreo cookies (about 24 cookies)
Prepare the crust: Combine the crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter in a medium bowl. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
Make the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add 1 cup of peanut butter, 1 1/2 cups of powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Beat until fully combined and creamy.
Fold in the whipped topping: Gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the peanut butter mixture until no streaks remain. Do not overmix.
Fill the crust: Spoon the peanut butter filling evenly into the chilled Oreo crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Chill the pie: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Prepare the topping: In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1/2 cup of peanut butter, 1/4 cup of powdered sugar, and milk until smooth. This creates a thin glaze.
Garnish and serve: Drizzle the peanut butter glaze over the chilled pie. Sprinkle with chocolate chips or top with whipped cream if desired. Slice and serve cold.
Notes
For a richer chocolate flavor, use a chocolate whipped topping instead of plain whipped topping.
If you do not have Oreos, you can substitute with a graham cracker crust made from 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs and 1/3 cup melted butter.
This pie sets best when chilled for a minimum of 6 hours.
