Peanut Butter Cup Ice Cream Pie is my favorite delicious dessert in the summer! I make it with peanut butter ice cream and an Oreo crust. If that’s not making you salivate, just wait. I also topped it with hot fudge, cool whip, and MORE peanut butter cups! This ice cream dessert going to be a your new family favorite!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Pie
This Peanut Butter Cup Pie is so rich, decadent, and chocolatey. Making no-bake dessert has never been easier than this 5-ingredient ice cream pie! Just combine everything together and put the pie in the freezer to set. I’m using a pre-made pie crust and ice cream, so it’s mostly a matter of filling up the pie and adding some delicious toppings.

Becky’s Tips
- Substitute peanut butter ice cream with chocolate or vanilla ice cream.
- You could also make this recipe with store-bought or homemade chocolate pie crust.
- If you can’t find mini peanut butter cups, simply chop up regular-sized ones!

How much cool whip
An 8-ounce tub!
Hi there! This looks delicious! When you say “1/4 quart of ice cream”, do you mean one cup? Thanks!
Yes! :)
Hi Becky – this looks amazing! Plan to make it for Thanksgiving. For the Cool Whip – did you use half of the 8 oz or 12 oz tub?
I usually only make dessert on Sundays, and since I was making a huge dinner, I needed something easy for dessert. This was perfect. I started with 1/2 each ice cream and whipped topping, but it didn’t fill the pie shell enough so I ended up using maybe 2/3 of each. We LOVE Reese’s pb cups around here, so the pie was really enjoyed by the whole family. I already have plans to make an Oreo version soon. Thanks for another great recipe.
Yay! So glad you loved it. We always have one (in different flavors) in the freezer for nights like that. I love your oreo idea!
Now this is perfect for summer. This pie sounds just incredible. Chocolate, ice cream, peanut butter, oreo crust….it has all the best things!!
Thanks! Hope you love it!
Oh my! I love the mix! It looks so good! Fabulous!
Hiii Becky! I want to make this for a friend’s birthday. Can you please verify the measurement of the peanut butter cup ice cream? Do you use a 1/4 of the quart?
oh my goodness your photos are amazing. the ice cream pie looks amazing. Do you use natural lighting? I really need to up my photography game ;)
Hey Cathy! Thanks so much for your sweet comments. I do use mostly natural light and I shoot with a Canon 6D. I have an ergo light that I use once in a while and it does a pretty good job!
This looks INCREDIBLE! I can’t wait to make it for my boyfriend’a birthday! Quick question though, if I want to make it more than 6-8 hours before serving, do I refrigerate it after 6-8 or keep it frozen until serving?!
I’m new at all this so please help!!!
Yay! I hope he loves it! It’s SO easy…one of my favorites! I would keep it frozen up until serving. Since the cool whip is mixed in there, it stays super easy to cut. It melts quicker than a normal ice cream cake. You shouldn’t have to thaw it at all to serve. Happy bday to your boyfriend!! Thanks for stopping by and saying hi :)
Yeayyy wonderful!!! I know he’ll absolutely love it :) Thank YOU for posting such wonderful recipes!
G’day! This so reminds me of childhood yum! Great angles on your photos too!
Cheers! Joanne
Thanks so much Joanne!
