It’s time to create a dessert that’s not just a dessert, but a memorable experience. Ready? Let’s get started! First, here’s what you’re going to need.
Ingredients
- 9 inch graham cracker pie crust
- 1 large egg
- 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 oz tub frozen whipped topping, thawed to room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup chocolate sauce
- 3/4 cup chopped Reese’s Cups
- 3 whole Reese’s Cups for garnishing, cut in half
- 1/4 cup Reese’s Pieces for garnishing, chopped

- 1 teaspoon Crisco (or coconut oil vegetable oil)
Tips and Thoughts for This Recipe
Spread the chocolate out so it doesn’t get too thick in one area. If this happens, it will be harder to cut through the chocolate.
Presentation tip: make the halved Reese cups all face the same way when placing them in a ring.
Place any leftover in the refrigerator wrapped in plastic wrap or in an airtight container for up to five days.

Reese's Pie
This Reese's peanut butter pie is a delicious treat that you can whip up in minutes. Just a few hours to a tasty, decadent dessert.
Ingredients
- 9 inch graham cracker pie crust
- 1 large egg
- 8 oz block of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 oz tub frozen whipped topping, thawed to room temperature
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/2 cup peanut butter
- 1/4 cup chocolate sauce
- 3/4 cup chopped Reese’s Cups
- 3 whole Reese’s Cups for garnishing, cut in half
- 1/4 cup Reese's Pieces for garnishing, chopped
- 1/4 cup chocolate melting wafers
- 1 teaspoon Crisco
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Beat the egg inside a small mixing bowl and use a silicone brush to brush the egg wash over the pie crust until it’s fully covered. Bake for 10 minutes. When done, remove from heat and allow it to cool completely before moving on.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine powdered sugar and cream cheese using an electric hand mixer. Mix until smooth and until there are no lumps from the cream cheese.
- Add in whipped topping, vanilla, peanut butter, and chocolate sauce. Mix again until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Fold in the 3/4 cup chopped Reese’s Cups and mix with a rubber spatula.
- Add mixture to the bottom of the pie crust. Use a rubber spatula to spread the mixture into the crust, filling the entire bottom and spreading evenly on top.
- Cover and place inside the refrigerator for 2-2.5 hours to chill.
- Near the end of the chill time, begin to prepare the melting chocolate. Add chocolate wafers to a small microwave safe bowl. Heat on 50% power inside the microwave for 1 minute. Add Crisco, stir, and continue heating in 30 second bursts, stirring in between, until the chocolate is silky smooth.
- Pour chocolate in the center of the pie and allow it to spread evenly. Optional: use the back of a spoon to spread the chocolate further.
- Place the halved Reese Cups into the chocolate, flat side down, in an even ring around the pie. Immediately top with chopped Reese’s Pieces over the melted chocolate.
- Place pie back inside the refrigerator to chill for another hour before serving.
