This pie is for major peanut butter lovers. If you’re in the mood for the best, creamy peanut butter pie with a peanut butter crust then this is the pie for you. A big bonus is that there’s a layer of hot fudge hidden inside. And of course you can drizzle additional hot fudge on top!
I went with a Nutter Butter crust for this pie. You can see that Nutter Butters are kind of a big deal around here. If you’re gluten free, use GF Oreos instead!
If you’re not familiar with Nutter Butters- they’re pretty much just like an Oreo but with peanut butter cookie and peanut butter cream filling.
How to make Nutter Butter Peanut Butter Pie:
24 Nutter Butter cookies are smashed into bits for the crust. You can just put then in a big plastic baggie and use something heavy to smash the cookies into crumbs.
This is a no-bake, easy-to-make kind of pie. The Nutter Butter crumbs are mixed with melted butter and simply patted into a pie plate.
A nice layer of hot fudge is then spooned on top.
Then it’s topped with the peanut butter cream filling…
…and smoothed on top. In true no-bake pie fashion, this one is stored in the freezer until it’s ready to eat.
My family was hanging out in the kitchen on this pie making day. There were hugs all around and this pie was made with great love.
Drizzling slices of pie with more hot fudge just seems like the right thing to do.
It is so important to spend time with family, and as your kids get older it becomes even more valued. I sure hope my peanut butter pie helps you feel comfort in this crazy world. There’s a whole lotta of love in this pie.
Make a pie (or anything else) for your family, and enjoy it together. Tomorrow is never certain, so make the most of today.
