No Bake Peanut Butter Dessert is a simple summer dessert. It’s light, creamy, peanut buttery, and is loaded with chocolate chips!
Made with the simplest of baking ingredients (flour, eggs, peanut butter, chocolate chips), this homemade peanut butter pie is meant to be enjoyed with chocolate chips!
Peanut Butter Dessert and chocolate chips are meant to be together, in one no bake recipe! Especially when it’s in the 90s outside and summer is in full swing, the last thing I want to do is to use my oven. Instead I prefer to make a variety of no bake desserts that require no oven time. I love No Bake Lemon Pudding Pie and No Bake Oreo Cake.
In this easy recipe, just a bit of prep work and under 30 minutes of your time gets you this easy peanut butter dessert. So addicting!
Not a fan of peanut butter?
If you are allergic to peanut butter or simply don’t like its taste, use almond butter instead. Use the same amount of almond butter as peanut butter in the recipe.
Chocolate chips alternatives and variations
This no bake peanut butter pie is very flexible in terms of customizations. Chocolate chips can be replaced with chopped Reese’s cups or peanut butter chips! You can also add peanuts. If using almond butter, I like to add slivered almonds and chopped almond butter cups.
Crust
All you need as far as the crust goes is to buy a ready-to-go graham cracker crust.
Pie filling
Prepare a large bowl and an electric mixer. Start by blending together cool whip, heavy cream, cream cheese, peanut butter, sugar and vanilla.
Next you will fold fold in mini chocolate chips until well blended.
Now let’s pour the filling into the graham cracker crust and refrigerate until firm! Done!
How to store no bake peanut butter dessert
Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. You can also freeze it for up to 2 months.

Very easy and very tasty. The only thing I change is, I use an Oreo cookie pie crust. But I love chocolate.
I’m glad you enjoyed it! Chocolate is my love too.
If you dont have and cant buy it.Can you use whole milk?
Whole milk might not work here, because the dessert does need that extra fat to hold its shape.
I love the combination of peanut butter and chocolate!
