A Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup is probably my favorite candy bar — if it is a candy bar. For this No-Bake Peanut Butter Cup Pie, the peanut butter cup pieces are folded into a silky, rich peanut butter and cream cheese filling. It rests in a pre-made Oreo cookie crust and is topped with fresh whipped cream.

Make your way to the kitchen during this holiday weekend for a slice of dessert you’ll never forget. (Southern Bite)

Notes

I really like the flavor of the fresh whipped cream as the topping on this pie, but you can save a few steps and some time by using an additional 8-ounce container of whipped topping instead.
