Easy No Bake Snickers Pie (Print version)

An easy no bake Snickers pie with peanut butter cream cheese filling, chopped candy bars, and an Oreo crust. Ready after a quick chill.

# Ingredients:

For the crust and filling

01 - 1 (9-inch) Oreo cookie pie crust, store-bought or homemade
02 - 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
03 - 1/2 cup (130 g) creamy peanut butter
04 - 1 cup (120 g) powdered sugar
05 - 8 oz (225 g) frozen whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
06 - 3 full-size Snickers bars (about 1.86 oz / 53 g each), chopped
07 - 1/4 cup (35 g) roasted salted peanuts, chopped
08 - 2 tablespoons dulce de leche or thick caramel sauce
09 - 1 oz (30 g) semi-sweet chocolate, melted (optional)

# Instructions:

01 - Spread the dulce de leche in an even layer over the bottom of the Oreo crust. Sprinkle half the chopped peanuts and one chopped Snickers bar on top.
02 - In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, and powdered sugar together until completely smooth and fluffy.
03 - Add the thawed whipped topping and fold gently until no streaks remain. You want it airy, not deflated.
04 - Stir in one chopped Snickers bar, distributing the chunks evenly through the filling.
05 - Spoon the mixture into the prepared crust and spread the top into a neat dome with a spatula.
06 - Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. The filling needs time to firm up before slicing.
07 - Just before serving, top with the remaining chopped Snickers, peanuts, and a drizzle of melted chocolate if you like.

# Good to know:

01 - Best served cold.
02 - Chill time is essential for clean slices.
