This Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse Pie has an Oreo crust, a creamy peanut butter mousse, and a drizzle of chocolate and peanuts! No baking required for this easy recipe.
I don’t really know how to explain this pie. It’s finally gone as of last night, and I actually miss it. I miss a pie.
Help.
But truly, it’s that good. Now, I made a TON of desserts over these past 5 or 6 days and everyone who came through the house had a different favorite. Two definitely stood out for me though, and this was one of them. As long as it was sitting in our fridge, I was stealing small slices I hoped no one would notice.
It’s super rich, and turns out a small bite or two (or three) was all I needed to satisfy the craving.
It was just so good I kept going back to it.
The filling is smooth, rich, and creamy, whereas the crust (made out of Oreos…I could go on and on about my love affair with Oreo crust) is crunchy. I added peanuts and chocolate for even more texture, and the result was peanut butter & chocoholic heaven.
Best part? Usually I think “mousse” and I think “too difficult”. So not the case. This is truly so easy. Two ingredients in the crust, 4 in the filling, and two to garnish. They’re all easy to find, you probably already have them ingredients, and the thing comes together in no time. The hardest part is waiting for it to set.
Isn’t the hardest part always the waiting?
Trust me though – it’s worth it.
And this stuff is rich, meaning it’ll be satisfying your sweetness cravings for a while. A little goes a long way!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Mousse Pie
Ingredients
For the crust
- 25 Oreos
- 4 tablespoons 1/2 stick butter, melted
For the filling
- 1 cup toasted peanuts, chopped
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 package, 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 1/4 cups powdered sugar
- 1 package, 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed
Instructions
For the crust
- Crush the Oreos until they’re fine crumbs. Pour melted butter over the top and stir with a fork to combine. Press into pie pan firmly and place in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
For the filling
- Sprinkle half of the chopped peanuts over the bottom of the pie crust. Drizzle half of the chocolate all around the bottom of the pie plate. It doesn't have to be perfect!
- In a large bowl, beat the peanut butter with the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Add in the thawed Cool Whip and beat mixture until creamy and fluffy, scraping the sides as needed.
- Pour filling into crust, evening out the top with a knife or spatula. Top with remaining peanuts and drizzle with remaining chocolate. Chill for at least an hour before serving.

Hello, I think your blog might be having browser compatibility
issues. When I look at your blog in Ie, it looks fine but when opening in Internet Explorer, it has some overlapping.
I just wanted to give you a quick heads up! Other then that, fantastic blog!
Thank you for letting me know Kelly! I don’t have IE, but I’ll have my web designer check it out and fix the issues.
i can’t watch this creamy, tasty and deliciousness pie, it’s so amazing, so full of sweet chocolate :P
Hello Rachel, I’m wondering if there is any other ingredient that I can substitute for the Cool Whip… I can’t seem to find one in the supermarkets where I’m at… Or can I make do without it altogether? Much thanks in advance.
Hi Maisarah, the Cool Whip is pretty important to the texture so I wouldn’t eliminate it completely, but you could try substituting the Cool Whip with whipped cream. If you’re making the whipped cream yourself, that would be able 1 1/4 cups heavy whipping cream. Hope this helps! :)
Dear Rachel,
Thanks so much tor your help, I’ll give it a go… :)
This looks and sounds amazing – I can see why you’d want to sneak back for more!
