Does your family have special birthday dessert traditions? My mom has been making this no-bake peanut butter pie for my sister on her birthday every year since she was three years old. It’s a scrumptious tradition that the whole family looks forward to enjoying when we celebrate her!

My special birthday dessert is this Oreo Ice Cream Pie. It’s a must try, too! We certainly don’t limit these recipes to just birthday celebrations as they make for great warm-weather desserts at our summer gatherings.

This no-bake peanut butter pie recipe couldn’t be any easier. Just keep in mind, you’ll want to make (and chill) the pie crust in advance so it’s cold and ready to hold your pie filling.

  1. I made Your Peanut Butter pie and followed your recipe to a T except I melted some milk chocolate chips in the microwave and spread the melted chocolate on the graham cracker pie shell and then added the peanut butter filling. It was delicious like a mixed up peanut butter cup. Thanks for the recipe. We enjoy no bake desserts as Arizona is too hot to have an oven on in the summer.






    1. Hi, Ellen! Oh wow — what a fabulous idea! Thank you for sharing. And I’m so happy you enjoyed it!

  2. OMGOSH I MADE YOU PEANUT BUTTER PIE IT GONE A.
    ND THERE’S ONLY 3 IN MY FAMILY DO YOU HAVE A PUBLISHED COOK BOOK

  3. I made this at my boyfriend’s house, and of course he didn’t have powdered sugar 😬. But holy cow did it STILL tasted amazing!






    1. Hi, Sara! I’m so glad it turned out. Did you use granulated sugar instead? It makes me so happy that y’all enjoyed it!

  4. This pie is truly delicious… I used a pre-baked graham cracker crust, I also froze it as I was transporting it to my daughters the next day and by the time I got to her house maybe 30 minutes later it was the perfect texture, thanks for a delicious recipe, I highly recommend it.






    1. Hi, Sally! I love it. I’m so glad y’all enjoyed it. You should try it frozen–I love right from the freezer!

  5. Peanut butter pie recipe:
    How much of each ingredient for this pie.
    Peanut buttter? cool whip? cream cheese” and powdered sugar?

  6. I did a little layer of chocolate ganache on bottom made mine taste like Reese cup pie!! Nice and easy recipe.






    1. Yummmm! That sounds amazing! I’ll have to try it next time I make it. Thanks for sharing!

  7. The pie was delicious but I had a difficult time getting the pie out of the pie pan. I think baking the graham cracker crust would solve this issue. Although it was pretty messy getting it out it tasted good
