Ingredients

Scale
  • 25 whole Oreos
  • 5 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
  • 6 ounce cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup white granulated sugar
  • 1/3 cup sour cream, room temperature or Greek yogurt
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 3.5 ounce chocolate bar, melted (I used Lindt 72%)
  • 10 ounce cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup white granulated sugar
  • 3/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup sour cream, room temperature or Greek yogurt
  • 2 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup melted peanut butter
  • Peanut butter cup, for decoration

Instructions

1. Make the Oreo Crust: Start by crushing the Oreos in a food processor until they form fine crumbs. Mix the crumbs with the melted butter until well combined, then press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie dish. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the fillings.

2. Create the Chocolate Layer: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, cocoa powder, sugar, sour cream, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the melted chocolate until fully incorporated. Spread this rich chocolate filling over the chilled Oreo crust and return the pie to the refrigerator.

3. Assemble the Peanut Butter Layer: Using a stand mixer or hand mixer, beat the cream cheese, sugar, peanut butter, vanilla, and sour cream until the mixture is light and fluffy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until well combined. Spread this peanut butter filling over the chocolate layer, then drizzle the melted peanut butter on top and decorate with peanut butter cup.

4. Chill and Serve: Place the entire pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until it’s set. This allows the flavors to meld and the texture to firm up. Once chilled, slice and serve this decadent Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie to your lucky guests.

Notes

To ensure your Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie turns out perfectly every time, here are a few essential tips:

Achieving the Perfect Oreo Crust: For a truly indulgent crust, make sure to use whole Oreos (not just the cookies) and crush them finely in a food processor. The melted butter helps the crumbs bind together seamlessly.

Melting Chocolate Without Burning: When melting the chocolate for the filling, use a double boiler or microwave at 50% power, stirring frequently, to prevent the chocolate from seizing or burning.

Whipping Cream to Perfection: For a light, airy peanut butter layer, be sure to whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks. This gives the filling an irresistible, mousse-like texture.

Variations and Additions: Feel free to experiment with different toppings, such as chopped peanuts, crumbled Reese’s Peanut Butter cup, or a drizzle of chocolate sauce. You can also try using different types of chocolate or peanut butter to suit your personal preferences.
