Make this easy, creamy, no-bake Butterfinger Pie featuring a chocolate Oreo crust, rich peanut butter filling, and crushed Butterfinger candy bars. It is a simple, crowd-pleasing dessert perfect for potlucks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (like Oreo)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1 1/2 cups Butterfinger candy bars, crushed (about 10 standard bars)
  • 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed, plus more for topping
  • 1/4 cup Butterfinger candy bars, crushed (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix the chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the cream cheese base: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and peanut butter until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Whip the cream: In a separate, chilled bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
  4. Fold in candy: Gently fold in 1 1/2 cups of the crushed Butterfinger bars and 1 cup of the thawed whipped topping into the peanut butter mixture.
  5. Assemble the pie: Pour the filling into the chilled Oreo crust and spread evenly.
  6. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For faster setting, you can freeze it for 1-2 hours.
  7. Garnish and serve: Before serving, top the pie with additional whipped topping and sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup of crushed Butterfinger bars over the top. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • You can substitute a pre-made frozen chocolate pie crust to save time.
  • If you are preparing this for a gathering, this pie is an excellent make ahead dessert.
  • For a richer chocolate flavor, use chocolate graham cracker crumbs instead of Oreo crumbs for the crust.
  • This recipe is a great alternative if you are looking for simple indulgent dessert options that do not require turning on the oven.
