I saw a picture on Facebook of a cookie pie like this. When I saw all the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and M&Ms rolling in on Halloween, I knew this had to go down. Promise me that you will make this.

I used six regular fun-sized Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and three fun-size M&Ms. It was just right for the pie. If you want to get crazy, go ahead and add another peanut butter cup. Also, the Reese’s Minis would work perfect in this, and you wouldn’t even have to cut them.

This recipe is so easy to make, too. You don’t even need to use your mixer. You start by melting the butter in the microwave, and then just stir everything else in. It takes about five minutes to mix up, and you throw it in the oven…25 minutes later you have a perfect Peanut Butter Cookie Pie on your hands.

How to make peanut butter cookie pie

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish. Set aside.
• In a medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl, melt butter for 30-40 seconds until just melted.
• Next, add brown sugar and peanut butter. Stir well.
• Then, add egg, and mix until it is beaten in.
• Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until completely incorporated.
• Gently stir in half of the candy, saving the rest to decorate the top.
• Next, spread cookie dough evenly into a lightly greased 9-inch pie tin.
• Sprinkle top with 1 tbsp of granulated sugar, and then use the remaining candy to decorate the top.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25-28 minutes or until edges are lightly browned and toothpick comes out mostly clean from the center.
• Let cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving.
• Enjoy!

We’ve never had a cookie pie at Thanksgiving before, but you can be sure we will this year and every year from here on out. The few members of the family who aren’t big on pie will be so excited to have this Peanut Butter Cookie Pie to enjoy….if they can keep me from eating it all myself that is….. 🙂

Tips for making Peanut Butter Cookie Pie

• Instead of using fun-size Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups, use Reese’s minis. Then there’s no need to cut them up.
• Make sure to first add the brown sugar and peanut butter to the hot melted butter before mixing in the egg. This helps the hot butter to cool down before you add the egg. You don’t want the egg to scramble.
• Instead of regular salt, I use coarse sea salt in this recipe. It’s the bomb!
• When inserting a toothpick in the middle to check if the pie is done, it’s okay if the toothpick has a few moist-looking crumbs on it, but you don’t want it to have gooey batter on it.

Recipe type: Dessert

Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 1 cup brown sugar
• ½ cup peanut butter (I like creamy.)
• ½ cup butter
• 1 large egg
• 1¼ cup all-purpose flour
• ¾ tsp baking soda
• ½ tsp baking powder
• ¼ tsp salt, scant (I use coarse sea salt.)
• 6 Fun-Size Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, cut into fourths
• ¼ cup of M&Ms (about 3 fun-size packages)
• 1 tbsp granulated white sugar to sprinkle on top

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish. Set aside.
3. In a medium-sized, microwave-safe bowl, melt butter for 30-40 seconds until just melted.
4. Next, add brown sugar and peanut butter (adding this first to the hot butter helps it cool down before you add the egg). Stir well.
5. Add egg, and mix until it is beaten in.
6. Add the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Mix well until completely incorporated.
7. Gently stir in half of the candy, saving the rest to decorate the top.
8. Once candy is stirred in, spread cookie dough into a lightly greased 9-inch pie tin.
9. Sprinkle top with 1 tbsp of granulated sugar, and then use the remaining candy to decorate the top.
10. Bake at 350 degrees for 25-28 minutes or until edges are lightly browned and toothpick comes out mostly clean from the center. It's okay if it has a few moist-looking crumbs on it, but you don't want it to have gooey batter on it.
11. Let cool on a wire rack for at least 2 hours before serving.
12. Enjoy!
