Description
A rich, gooey, and creamy no bake pie loaded with Snickers bars and a buttery graham cracker crust, perfect for hot days and quick dessert cravings.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs (about 12 full sheets, finely crushed)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 3 to 4 Snickers bars (about 5 ounces), chopped into bite-sized pieces
- Optional toppings: additional chopped Snickers or peanuts, drizzle of caramel sauce
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until crumbs are evenly coated and look like wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Compact the crust tightly using the bottom of a glass or measuring cup.
- Chill the crust in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.
- Make the filling base: Beat softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Scrape down the sides to avoid lumps.
- Whip the heavy cream in a separate bowl to stiff peaks, about 3-5 minutes on medium-high speed.
- Slowly add sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Beat until just combined.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula to keep it airy.
- Fold in chopped Snickers bars carefully to keep bite-sized pieces intact.
- Pour the filling into the chilled crust and smooth the top. Optionally, sprinkle extra chopped Snickers or peanuts and drizzle caramel sauce on top.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to set.
- Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 10 minutes to soften slightly.
Notes
Soften cream cheese properly to avoid lumps. Fold whipped cream gently to keep filling light and airy. Chill pie for at least 4 hours or overnight for best texture. Press crust firmly to prevent crumbling. Can substitute graham crackers with chocolate wafer crumbs or gluten-free options. Dairy-free substitutions possible with coconut cream and plant-based cream cheese.
