Description
A creamy, chocolatey no-bake pie that tastes like a Reese’s cup but is lighter and easier to make. This pantry-friendly dessert requires just a few ingredients and minimal active time.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar (optional)
- 1 cup smooth peanut butter
- 1 cup full-fat plain Greek yogurt
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
Instructions
- Crush the cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or a zip-top bag with a rolling pin.
- In a medium bowl, mix the cookie crumbs with melted butter (and sugar if using) until it resembles wet sand.
- Press the crust mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of an 8-inch pie dish. Set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together smooth peanut butter, Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until completely smooth and emulsified.
- Pour the filling over the prepared crust and spread evenly. Tap the dish to release air bubbles.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 30 minutes to firm up the filling.
- While the filling sets, melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the chilled pie and spread evenly to the edges.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate topping is completely firm.
- Slice with a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean cuts. Serve chilled.
Notes
Use smooth commercial peanut butter, not natural peanut butter with separated oil, to ensure the filling sets properly. Full-fat Greek yogurt is essential for texture. The pie tastes better the next day as flavors meld. Do not reheat; serve cold.
