Ingredients

Scale

Crust and Cookie Base

  • 1 pie crust (9-inch, pre-baked)
  • 2 cups monster cookies, crushed

Cheesecake Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup peanut butter (smooth or crunchy based on preference)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup whipped cream (sweetened)

Toppings

  • 1/2 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup mini M&Ms

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Pre-bake the 9-inch pie crust according to package instructions or homemade base until lightly golden. Allow it to cool completely before adding the filling to prevent sogginess.
  2. Crush Monster Cookies: Place the monster cookies in a plastic bag and crush them into smaller pieces using a rolling pin or pulse them in a food processor until you have coarse crumbs mixed with chunks.
  3. Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until creamy and smooth. Add the peanut butter and powdered sugar and continue mixing until well combined. Gently fold in the whipped cream to keep the filling light and fluffy.
  4. Combine Filling with Crushed Cookies: Fold the crushed monster cookies into the cheesecake filling mixture carefully, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  5. Assemble the Pie: Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and spread evenly with a spatula. Smooth the top for an attractive finish.
  6. Add Toppings: Sprinkle the chocolate chips and mini M&Ms over the top of the pie evenly to add color, texture, and flavor contrast.
  7. Chill the Pie: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to let the filling set and flavors meld together.
  8. Serve: Slice the pie with a clean sharp knife and serve chilled. Enjoy this rich and playful dessert with friends and family!

Notes

  • For a gluten-free version, use a gluten-free pie crust and gluten-free monster cookies or substitute with gluten-free cookie crumbs.
  • To enhance the flavor, toast the crushed monster cookies lightly before folding them into the filling.
  • Peanut butter can be substituted with almond butter for a different nutty flavor.
  • Store leftover pie covered and refrigerated for up to 4 days.
  • For extra chocolate flavor, drizzle melted chocolate over the pie before serving.
