Ingredients in No-Bake Snickers Pie
This pie can be put together in 10 minutes. That’s it! The filling is a cool and creamy peanut butter cheesecake that is packed with flavor. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact measurements.
Cream cheese: This creates the smooth and tangy filling for the pie.
Chunky peanut butter: mixed with the cream cheese, this is what brings on that classic snickers flavor.
Powdered sugar: The powdered sugar adds in some sweetness to balance out the tang in the cream cheese. It also makes it so that the filling stays nice and smooth.
Cool whip: Make sure that your cool whip isn’t frozen! If it is, you need to thaw it to room temperature so that it mixes into the filling without any lumps.
Snickers Bars: Cut up snickers bars go into the filling and you will also sprinkle some on top as a garnish!
Graham cracker pie crust: You can make this from scratch (instructions are on the recipe card) or you can skip this step and just buy one pre-made at the store!
How to Make No Bake Snickers Bar Pie
This pie will be the biggest hit wherever it goes. And it is perfect for upcoming gatherings because it is so easy to make!
Make the Crust: Add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter to a medium bowl and mix until combined. It should resemble damp sand. (You can also use a pre-made crust instead).
Press into Pan: Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie pan, going all the way up the sides. Use your fingers or the bottom of a flat measuring cup or glass to really pack the crumbs together. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
Make Filling: Add the cream cheese, peanut butter, and sugar to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until well combined.
Fold and Garnish: Fold in the whipped topping, followed by the chopped Snickers, reserving a few of the Snickers for garnishing the top.
Add Filling to Crust: Spread the filling evenly in the chilled pie shell and top with the reserved Snickers and chopped peanuts.
Chill: Chill for at least 3 hours.
Add sauce: Drizzle with caramel sauce before serving.
Combine the graham crackers, butter, and sugar.
Press the crust into a pie dish and chill.
Combine cream cheese, peanut butter, & powdered sugar.
Fold in the whipped topping.
Stir in the chopped Snickers bar.
Spread into the prepared pie crust and chill.
Substitutes and Variations for No Bake Snickers Bar Pie
The best part about making pies at home is that you can switch them up! Here are a few ideas on different variations for this no bake snickers bar pie:
Change the crust: Use an Oreo or chocolate graham cracker crust instead of a regular graham cracker crust.
Add sauce: Drizzle chocolate sauce and caramel sauce over the top before serving. For some extra flavor, add caramel sauce on top of the crust and spread it on the crust before layering on the filling.
Add peanuts: Add 1/3 cup chopped peanuts to the filling along with the snickers pieces.
Storage Tips
Since this no bake snickers bar pie is best when you have time to chill it in the fridge, it is great to make ahead of time!
In the Refrigerator: Once your pie is assembled, let it chill in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. If you want to store it longer, make sure that it’s covered in an airtight container (I like to use these for my pies) and it will last 3-4 days.
In the Freezer: Stored in an airtight container, this will stay good in the freezer for at least a month. Let it thaw for a few hours in the refrigerator before serving.

Tips for making Snickers Pie
You can make your own graham cracker crumbs by pulsing 12 whole graham crackers in a food processor or blender until fully blended. Or you can crush the crackers by hand by placing them in a large ziplock bag and using a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs.
To use real whipped cream instead of whipped topping, whip 1 1/2 cups of cold heavy whipping cream and 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar to medium-stiff peaks. Use in place of the whipped topping in the recipe card.
