Chocolate Peanut Butter Oreo Pie

Chocolate Peanut Butter Oreo Pie



Ingredients

1 Oreo pie crust
1 small box instant chocolate pudding
2 cups milk
1 cup peanut butter
3/4 cup powdered sugar, divided
2 cups + 2 tablespoons heavy cream, divided
12 Oreo cookies crushed
 
Directions
  1. Mix the instant pudding and set aside. 
  2. In another bowl mix the peanut butter, 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 2 tablespoons heavy cream.
  3. Spoon peanut butter mixture in bottom of pie crust.
  4. Sprinkle crushed oreo's over peanut butter, reserving some for garnish
  5. Spoon pudding over peanut butter layer.
  6. Make whipped cream with 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 2 cups heavy cream (whip to stiff peaks) and spread on top of pudding.
  7. Sprinkle with remaining oreos.
  8. Let chill in refrigerator for at least one hour before serving.
 
Notes:  I've made this recipes several times now and this is what I have found.  If you follow the recipe as stated the peanut butter layer comes out quite thick like the filling of a reeses peanut butter cup.  I thinned it down some by adding 2 additional table spoons if heavy cream.  Either way it came out really tasty.  I also found that whipping up 2 cups of heavy cream make a LOT of whipped cream.  You can cut it down  to either one cup or one cup and 1/2 and adjust the powdered sugar to taste.  I suggest trying the recipe as written the first time then experiment on your own from there.
The photo shows this pie with a different crust, but other than that, its the same.
