Ingredients

Scale

Pie Base

  • 1 pie crust

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup whipped cream

Topping

  • 2 cups monster cookies, crushed
  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup mini M&Ms

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking the pie.
  2. Prepare Pie Crust: Place the pie crust into a pie dish, ensuring it fits evenly and pressing down gently on the bottom and sides.
  3. Mix Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, peanut butter, and powdered sugar. Beat until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Fold in Whipped Cream: Carefully fold the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture to maintain a light and fluffy texture.
  5. Assemble Filling: Spread the creamy peanut butter cheesecake mixture evenly into the prepared pie crust.
  6. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the crushed monster cookies evenly over the top of the filling, then add the chocolate chips and mini M&Ms to create a colorful, crunchy layer.
  7. Bake: Bake the assembled pie in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool completely before slicing and serving to ensure clean slices and optimal flavor.

Notes

  • For best results, use room temperature cream cheese to ensure a smooth filling.
  • Allow the pie to cool fully before slicing to avoid a runny filling.
  • Monster cookies typically contain oats, chocolate chips, M&Ms, and peanut butter, adding texture and flavor.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For a gluten-free option, substitute the pie crust and monster cookies with gluten-free versions.
