No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Dessert – a cool and creamy, oreo, peanut butter and chocolate loaded dessert, perfect for summer and anytime you need an easy no-bake dessert.
Summer is so close and the hot temperatures, are already in full swing where I live.
And no matter how well air conditioned the house is, I think most of us would prefer to leave the oven off and instead indulge in cool, refreshing desserts. So today I’m sharing a recipe for No Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Dessert. It’s really good!! And if you’re a chocolate, oreo or peanut butter fan, this will be right up your alley.
After such a great response from No Bake Oreo Delight, my brain started churning with other similar ideas. I kept the Oreo crust, but added peanut butter to the cream cheese layer, topped with layer of chopped peanut butter cups.
I kept chocolate pudding layer too, but added whipped topping for more of a chocolate mousse consistency, and more chopped peanut butter cups, and crushed oreos on top.

This recipe was a hit for my birthday! The only thing I would change would be less baking time.
The recipe says “9 inch pan”. What is the other dimension? Is it a square 9” pan or a 9”x13” Pan?
Thank you
I love this recipe. I figured out it was better in a 9×13 pan than in a square one. Now to figure out how to make room in my freezer.
