Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 1 (6 oz) ready-to-use Oreo cookie crust
Filling
- 1 bar (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 carton (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed
Topping
- 1/4 cup hot fudge sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, use a hand mixer to beat together the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and creamy peanut butter until the mixture is smooth, combined, and creamy.
- Incorporate the Cool Whip: Gently fold the thawed Cool Whip into the peanut butter mixture until fully incorporated and fluffy, being careful not to deflate the whipped topping.
- Assemble the pie: Evenly spread the peanut butter and cream cheese filling into the prepared Oreo cookie crust, smoothing the surface.
- Swirl the fudge: Warm the hot fudge sauce in the microwave for 30 to 45 seconds until pourable. Drizzle the warm fudge over the top of the peanut butter filling, then use a toothpick to gently swirl it on the surface of the pie, creating a marbled effect without digging deep into the filling.
- Chill the pie: Cover the pie with the plastic lid that came with the Oreo crust and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight to allow it to set properly before serving.
Notes
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
- For best results, allow the pie to chill overnight so flavors meld and the texture firms up.
- The hot fudge sauce can be substituted with homemade chocolate ganache if desired.
- Use a gentle folding technique to keep the Cool Whip light and airy in the filling.
- This dessert is best served chilled and can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
