Notes

  • Make the peanut butter filling up to 24 hours in advance, and store in the fridge in an airtight container. 
  • Mix the ingredients together, or shake the bag prior to serving! This ensures you'll get all the flavors in every bite. 
Crust Variations: We used classic mini butter cookies in this peanut butter pie in a bag, but you can mix it up with any favorites.
  • Graham Crackers: Classic for a cheesecake-style pie, they provide a nice balance of sweetness and crunch.
  • Oreos: For a chocolatey twist, crushed Oreos create a delicious and rich crust.
  • Chocolate Chip Cookies: These can add a chewy texture and extra sweetness to your pie.
  • Nutter Butter: If you love peanut butter, these cookies complement the filling perfectly.
Topping Variations: Add chocolate chips, chopped peanuts, whipped cream or a drizzle of chocolate sauce between layers for extra flavor.
