Make this rich, creamy no-bake Butterfinger pie featuring a chocolate cookie crust and a smooth peanut butter filling loaded with crunchy candy pieces. This easy recipe is perfect for quick desserts.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (like Oreo)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 (12 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup Butterfinger candy bars, crushed
  • 1/2 cup Butterfinger candy bars, crushed (for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter together in a bowl until combined. 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.
  2. Make the peanut butter filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, peanut butter, and vanilla extract. Beat until the mixture is fully combined and creamy.
  3. Fold in the whipped topping: Gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the peanut butter mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  4. Add candy pieces: Fold in 1 cup of the crushed Butterfinger candy bars into the filling.
  5. Assemble the pie: Spoon the filling evenly into the chilled cookie crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill the pie: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm. This step is important for setting the filling.
  7. Garnish and serve: Before serving, sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of crushed Butterfinger candy bars over the top of the pie. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • For the best texture, ensure your cream cheese is fully softened before mixing.
  • If you do not have Oreo cookies, you can substitute with graham cracker crumbs for a different flavor profile in the crust.
  • Crush the Butterfinger bars by placing them in a sealed plastic bag and tapping them with a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy pan.
