Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust:
- 24 Nutter Butter cookies
- 6 tablespoons salted butter, melted
For the Filling:
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Marshmallow Fluff
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 3 cups Cool Whip, divided
- 12 Nutter Butter cookies, crushed
For the Topping:
- 1/4 cup peanut butter, warmed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (optional for baking the crust).
- Crush 24 Nutter Butter cookies into crumbs using a food processor or a rolling pin.
- Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter and press the mixture into a 9-inch pie plate to form a crust. Bake for 11–12 minutes or chill in the fridge for 20 minutes. Let cool.

- Drizzle warmed peanut butter over the top and serve.
Notes
- Make Ahead: This pie is perfect for preparing in advance. You can make it the night before or up to 2 days ahead of time. Just store it in the refrigerator and add the peanut butter drizzle right before serving.
- Chill Time: Allow the pie to refrigerate for at least 2 hours to fully set. If possible, let it chill overnight for the best texture and easiest slicing.
- Crust Substitutes: If you don’t have Nutter Butter cookies, you can use graham crackers, Oreos, or chocolate sandwich cookies. Each variation will give the pie a unique flavor twist.
- Natural Peanut Butter: If using natural peanut butter, ensure it’s thoroughly mixed to avoid separation, as the oil content can affect the filling’s consistency.
- Homemade Whipped Cream Option: If you don’t want to use Cool Whip, replace it with homemade whipped cream. Beat 1 1/2 cups of heavy cream with 2–3 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Decorations: For added visual appeal, garnish the pie with additional Nutter Butter cookie crumbs, chocolate shavings, or crushed peanuts.
