Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate sandwich cookie crumbs (about 24 cookies)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars (about 68 standard bars)
  • Whipped topping, for garnish
  • Extra crushed Butterfinger, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Combine the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a medium bowl. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Chill the crust in the freezer for 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the filling base: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
  3. Whip the cream: In a separate, clean bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
  4. Combine fillings: Gently fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in candy: Gently fold in the 1 cup of crushed Butterfinger candy bars.
  6. Assemble the pie: Pour the filling into the chilled chocolate cookie crust and spread evenly.
  7. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For faster setting, you can freeze it for 2 hours.
  8. Garnish and serve: Before serving, top the pie with whipped topping and sprinkle with extra crushed Butterfinger pieces. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • For an even easier crust, you can use a store-bought frozen chocolate pie crust.
  • If you are planning ahead, this pie holds up well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • This recipe is a great option when you are looking for simple summer pies that do not require turning on the oven.
