Description

This No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl Pie is a decadent and creamy dessert featuring a rich peanut butter filling swirled with melted chocolate over a chocolate cookie crust. Perfect for peanut butter and chocolate lovers, this easy-to-make pie requires no baking and is ready to chill for a luscious treat.


Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 prepared chocolate cookie crust (9-inch)

Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1½ cups whipped topping, plus more for garnish

Chocolate Swirl

  • ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Garnishes (optional)

  • Chopped peanuts or mini chocolate chips


Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, creamy peanut butter, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  2. Incorporate whipped topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into the peanut butter mixture, combining thoroughly but carefully to maintain a light, fluffy texture.
  3. Assemble the pie: Spoon the peanut butter filling evenly into the prepared chocolate cookie crust and smooth the surface with a spatula.
  4. Melt the chocolate: Place the semisweet chocolate chips and milk in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-second intervals, stirring in between, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
  5. Create the swirl: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the top of the peanut butter filling, then use a knife or toothpick to swirl the chocolate gently into the filling, creating a marbled effect.
  6. Chill the pie: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until it is firm and set.
  7. Garnish and serve: Before serving, top the pie with extra whipped topping and sprinkle with chopped peanuts or mini chocolate chips if desired for added texture and decoration.

Notes

  • Ensure the pie is thoroughly chilled before slicing to get clean, defined layers.
  • Use natural peanut butter for a version that is less sweet yet still flavorful.
  • This pie can be prepared a day in advance, making it a convenient choice for entertaining.
