Ingredients
Crust
24 Oreos
7 tablespoons melted butter
Filling
1 package 8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup confectioners sugar
¾ cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup chopped Butterfingers about 12 fun size bars
8 ounces thawed whipped topping
Optional Topping
Whipped topping
Additional chopped Butterfingers
Instructions
- Prepare the pie dish
Lightly grease a 9 inch pie dish with butter or shortening. This prevents sticking and ensures clean slices when serving. - Make the Oreo crust
Place the Oreos in a food processor and pulse until they turn into fine, even crumbs. Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while processing on low speed. Continue blending until the crumbs are fully coated and resemble wet sand. - Shape and chill the crust
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie dish. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to compact the crust evenly. Place it in the freezer for 20 minutes to firm up. - Prepare the filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, confectioners sugar, and peanut butter with an electric mixer until completely smooth and creamy. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is fully incorporated. - Add the candy
Stir in the chopped Butterfingers using a spatula. Distribute the pieces evenly for crunchy bites throughout the pie. - Fold in whipped topping
Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping. Use slow, sweeping motions to maintain the airy texture. The mixture should be light, fluffy, and fully blended. - Assemble the pie
Spoon the filling into the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula for an even finish. - Chill until set
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until the filling is firm and sliceable. For best results, chill overnight. - Garnish and serve
Before serving, top with extra whipped topping and additional chopped Butterfingers if desired. Slice, serve chilled, and enjoy.
Notes
Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened to prevent lumps.
Freeze the crust before adding the filling for clean slices.
Chill for at least 4 hours for best texture, overnight is even better.
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
For easier slicing, dip a knife in warm water and wipe clean between cuts.
