Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 family-size packs of Nutter Butter cookies
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 16 oz whipped topping, thawed
  • 2 tablespoons crushed Nutter Butter cookies (for finishing)


Instructions

  1. Start by lining the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish with a single layer of Nutter Butter cookies to form your base.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese and peanut butter until silky smooth and cohesive.
  3. Stir in half of the whipped topping and mix just until combined.
  4. Using a gentle hand, fold the remaining whipped topping into the mixture to preserve its airy texture.
  5. Spread about one-third of the peanut butter cream over the cookie layer. Add another cookie layer, followed by more filling. Continue until all components are used, ending with a thick layer of the peanut butter mixture.
  6. Sprinkle the crushed cookies across the top for added crunch and visual appeal.
  7. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours, though overnight chilling delivers the best texture and flavor.
