Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 24 Nutter Butter Cookies
  • 6 tablespoons salted butter, melted

Filling

  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • 1 cup Marshmallow Fluff or Creme
  • 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 3 cups Cool Whip, divided
  • 12 Nutter Butter cookies, crushed

Topping

  • 1/4 cup peanut butter, heated in microwave (for drizzling)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Crust: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Place 24 Nutter Butter cookies into a food processor and pulse until finely ground. If you don’t have a food processor, put the cookies in a large zip-lock bag and crush them using a heavy object. In a separate bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with melted salted butter until well combined.
  2. Form and Bake Crust: Press the cookie and butter mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate, creating an even crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 11 to 12 minutes. Remove from oven and let the crust cool completely to set.
  3. Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, marshmallow fluff, and creamy peanut butter. Using a hand-held electric mixer, beat the mixture until it is smooth and well blended.
  4. Incorporate Cool Whip and Cookie Crumbs: Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of Cool Whip and the 12 crushed Nutter Butter cookies into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Transfer this filling into the cooled pie crust, spreading evenly.
  5. Add Cool Whip Topping: Spread the remaining 1 1/2 cups of Cool Whip evenly over the top of the pie to create a light, fluffy topping.
  6. Chill the Pie: Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set and flavors to meld.
  7. Finish with Peanut Butter Drizzle and Serve: Before serving, heat 1/4 cup peanut butter in the microwave until it becomes pourable. Drizzle the warm peanut butter over the chilled pie for an extra layer of flavor. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

  • Using a food processor ensures finely ground cookie crumbs for a smooth crust, but crushing in a zip-lock bag works well too.
  • Make sure to cool the crust completely before adding the filling to prevent melting or sliding.
  • If you prefer, substitute Cool Whip with homemade whipped cream for a fresher taste.
  • For a firmer set, refrigerate the pie longer than 2 hours, ideally overnight.
  • This pie is best served chilled and stored in the refrigerator.
