Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

This Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is filled with 3 of my favorite things: chocolate, peanut butter, and ice cream. Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie is quite possibly the best dessert ever!

Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream Pie is exactly what it sounds like. I made a pie out of peanut butter cup ice cream and Oreo pie crust, and topped it with a couple more DELICIOUS things. Making dessert has never been easier than with this 5 ingredient ice cream pie!

I’m obsessed with this easy Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie. There’s so much chocolate, peanut butter, and ice cream mixed in here…what’s not to love?! I topped it with more Peanut Butter Cups, hot fudge, and some Cool Whip. Now I’m in heaven. This ice cream pie is so rich, sweet, and chocolatey. YUM!

There’s no cooking involved with this easy dessert recipe either. Just put everything together and put the pie in the freezer to set. Talk about a no-hassle dessert!

Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie

A couple months ago I made an Easy Mint Chip Ice Cream Pie, and then last month I made a Strawberry Lemonade Freezer Pie. Both were SUPER easy and made in the blink of an eye. I decided it was time to make another ice cream pie recipe using two of my favorite flavors: peanut butter and chocolate!

And so this Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie was born. It’s a pretty genius idea if you ask me. Peanut butter plus ice cream equals PURE decadence! Plus, there’s no better way to get your Peanut Butter Cups fix than to just throw them on top of a pie…right?

This Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie is just what I need to feed my stress. My husband will be lucky if he gets any…Give me all the chocolate and peanut butter. All of it!

Easy No-Bake Ice Cream Pie

Why spend your time BAKING a pie when you can just make it in the freezer? Don’t get me wrong, I love a warm pie fresh out of the oven. But sometimes a good no-bake pie recipe is the perfect solution.

Maybe you’re meant to bring a dessert somewhere tomorrow but you TOTALLY forgot until the night before. There’s not time to let a pie sit in the oven and cook. But you can throw it in the freezer and let it set over night. It’s like cooking in your sleep. And the result is the most delicious Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie ever!

How to Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie

This Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie is made with peanut butter cup ice cream and an Oreo crust. If that’s not making you salivate, just wait. It’s also topped with hot fudge, Cool Whip, and MORE Peanut Butter Cups. That’s every delicious chocolate peanut butter treat in one pie!

This no-bake pie is really easy to make too. We’re using a pre-made pie crust and ice cream, so it’s mostly a matter of filling up the pie and adding some toppings.

How to Make Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie:

  1. Use an electric mixer to mix the peanut butter ice cup ice cream and Cool Whip
  2. Pour the mixture into the Oreo Pie Crust
  3. Microwave the hot fudge, let it cool slightly, and pour over the ice cream
  4. Top with Peanut Butter Cups (cut in half so they’re easier to eat)
  5. Put your pie into the freezer and let it set for 6-8 hours

Just 5 ingredients and 5 steps! Making dessert couldn’t be easier. This chocolate peanut butter pie is just so delicious, I can’t get enough of it.

I usually only make dessert on Sundays, and since I was making a huge dinner, I needed something easy for dessert. This was perfect. I started with 1/2 each ice cream and whipped topping, but it didn’t fill the pie shell enough so I ended up using maybe 2/3 of each. We LOVE Reese’s pb cups around here, so the pie was really enjoyed by the whole family. I already have plans to make an Oreo version soon. Thanks for another great recipe.5 stars

Hiii Becky! I want to make this for a friend’s birthday. Can you please verify the measurement of the peanut butter cup ice cream? Do you use a 1/4 of the quart?

Hey Cathy! Thanks so much for your sweet comments. I do use mostly natural light and I shoot with a Canon 6D. I have an ergo light that I use once in a while and it does a pretty good job!

This looks INCREDIBLE! I can’t wait to make it for my boyfriend’a birthday! Quick question though, if I want to make it more than 6-8 hours before serving, do I refrigerate it after 6-8 or keep it frozen until serving?!

I’m new at all this so please help!!!

Yay! I hope he loves it! It’s SO easy…one of my favorites! I would keep it frozen up until serving. Since the cool whip is mixed in there, it stays super easy to cut. It melts quicker than a normal ice cream cake. You shouldn’t have to thaw it at all to serve. Happy bday to your boyfriend!! Thanks for stopping by and saying hi :)

I am always that way after getting back from trips! My stress level is at such a high trying to catch up, etc! I feel your pain!!

But I wouldn’t mind helping the stress with a piece or two or three of this pie! Chocolate + peanut butter = my happy place.
