Preparation
Step 1
Make the crust
Step 2
In a food processor or blender, pulse 22 Oreos (including the cream filling) into a fine crumb. You should have about 2 cups (packed) crumbs, or 250g. Pour crumbs into a large bowl. Add the melted butter and stir to combine. The mixture will be thick and quite wet. Try to smash/break up any large chunks. Pour the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish. With medium pressure using your hand, pat the crumbs down into the bottom and up the sides to make a compact, thick crust. Set in the freezer as you make the filling.
Step 3
Prepare the pie filling
Step 4
Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, beat the peanut butter, sugar, cream cheese, and milk together in a large bowl. Beat until the mixture is completely smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping.
Step 5
Remove pie crust from the freezer and layer 1/2 of the pie filling onto the crust. Sprinkle with 1/2 of the crushed Reese’s Pieces. Layer with the rest of the pie filling, swirling to make it completely smooth on top. Top with chocolate syrup and remaining Reese’s Pieces.
Step 6
Freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight. 20 minutes before serving, remove from the freezer and let sit out to gently thaw. This makes the pie much easier to cut.
