Description

A crowd-pleasing no-bake dessert that combines crunchy Oreos and creamy peanut butter, topped with a chocolate layer.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups crushed Oreo cookies (about 24 cookies), divided
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 1/2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
  • 1 1/2 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil or light corn syrup

Instructions

  1. Line an 8×8-inch pan with parchment, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
  2. Pulse 1 1/2 cups Oreos in a food processor with the melted butter until coarse crumbs form; press into the pan to make the base.
  3. Whisk peanut butter and powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in remaining 1/2 cup finely crushed Oreos; spread over the base and press gently.
  4. Melt chocolate chips with oil in microwave bursts or over a double boiler, stirring until smooth; spread over the peanut layer.
  5. Chill for 1-2 hours in the fridge (or 20-30 minutes in the freezer) until firm, then lift out and slice into 12 bars.

Notes

Use room-temperature peanut butter for easy mixing. Chill fully before slicing for clean edges.
