Layers of no bake peanut butter cheesecake and fluffy pudding mousse make this easy White Chocolate Peanut Butter Pudding Pie a must make dessert for every holiday season.
Is it just me, or does this time of year seem better for pies? I mean, I do enjoy a good pie all year long, but for some reason I like it even more in the holiday season.
Speaking of holidays, do you decorate for the Christmas season before or after Thanksgiving? We usually spend the Saturday AFTER pulling out all the boxes and decorating the tree while enjoying Peppermint Mocha Hot Chocolate and cookies.
But this year I have seen so many people that have already decorated, and it is getting me into the holiday spirit. There is no way my family will let me start decorating for Christmas this soon.
Maybe if I start putting out one piece at a time, I can get away with it! Wink, wink!
I could also make a few different pies and keep them totally distracted with all the desserts in the fridge and on the counter, so they won’t notice the Christmas decorations. It’s worth a try anyway! And if all else fails, then I have pie!
I decided to change up this No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie first. I used Nutter Butter cookies, white chocolate pudding, and white chocolate peanut butter cups.
Now I’m not sure which pudding pie I like better because usually I’m all about the chocolate, but there is something about the white chocolate mousse in this peanut butter pie that I am totally loving.
How to make a White Chocolate Peanut Butter Pudding Pie:
Crust – Crush Nutter Butter cookies (cream included) in a food processor, then stir in melted butter. Press this mixture into a 9 inch pie plate.
Peanut Butter Layer – Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until creamy. Add peanut butter and a little bit of Cool Whip. Spread in the bottom of the crust.
White Chocolate Pudding Layer – Mix an instant pudding mix with milk. Fold in Cool Whip and spread on top of the peanut butter layer.
Topping – Use a piping bag and icing tip 1M to swirl the extra Cool Whip around the edge of the peanut butter pie and add white chocolate peanut butter cups to each one.
PRO TIP: If you do not like using Cool Whip, make this Homemade Whipped Cream ahead of time and use that instead.

How long does it take to chill the milk/pudding mixture? I’ve had it in the fridge for a couple hours now and it’s not getting much thicker. Thanks!
Jocelyn says
The pudding and milk mixture only needs to chill for about 5 minutes. It will thicken pretty much instantly because you are not using the full amount of milk that the box calls for. How much milk did you use? If you did 1 cup of milk, you are fine to fold the Cool Whip in and spread on the pie. I hope that helps!
Melani says
I read the recipe ingredients three times. I’ve never heard of peanut butter creamed cookie crumbs. Is that a cookie that’s been ground up?
Jocelyn says
Yes, I used a peanut butter cream filled peanut butter cookie. You could use Nutter Butter cookies…I think I used a store brand just like it.

Jocelyn peanut butter pie is my husbands fave! This looks awesome!
Chels+R. says
Love the flavors in there. We try and decorate after Thanksgiving too. We got our tree on Sunday and I decorated the house on Tuesday. All that’s left is the lights outside, which may have to be done in the rain. 🙁

What a stunning pie Jocelyn! And I see my favorite candies on top there so you know I’m ALL in 🙂 Love this!
Maureen Blackburn says
What a perfect pie for a quick and delicious treat in between all the dark chocolate I am usually cooking. I especially love the reminder to think of those who have less, and help where possible. Really love you, and all you stand for!!!

You had me at peanut butter….but then you added “white chocolate” and “pie” and I knew that I needed to have 3 slices of this goodness! Pinned!

Adding white chocolate to peanut butter pie is about the only way I can think of making it better than the original.
