Ingredients Needed For No-Bake Chocolate Peanut Butter Icebox Cake

  • Cream Cheese– you will want to soften it (take it out of the refrigerator for at least an hour in advance) so it will mix easily into the peanut butter.
  • Creamy Peanut Butter– you can use crunchy if you prefer.
  • Powdered Sugar
  • Cool Whip– Cool Whip is great to use because it is convenient and it is very stable. You can use fresh whipped cream if you prefer.
  • Chocolate Graham Crackers– I have noticed Chocolate Graham Crackers have gotten really hard to find. If you have a Kroger near you, they have a store-brand Chocolate Graham Cracker. You can use regular Graham Crackers or Oreo Cookies instead.
  • Mini Peanut Butter Cups
  • Fudge Sauce

Recipe Tips

Should be made 2 to 6 hours in advance so the graham crackers have time to get a little soft.

Will keep for 3 days in the refrigerator if covered well with plastic wrap.

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • cups powdered sugar
  • 4 cups Cool Whip, divided
  • 16 Chocolate graham crackers
  • 12 mini peanut butter cups, chopped

Instructions 

  • In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth.
    Beat in powdered sugar and then 3 cups of Cool Whip.
  • Spread just a little peanut butter mixture in the bottom of a 9-inch square pan. This will help hold the graham crackers in place when you spread the peanut butter mixture on top of them.
  • Arrange graham crackers to cover the bottom of the pan, breaking the graham crackers as needed.
  • Spread half the peanut butter mixture on top of the graham crackers.
  • Repeat with another layer of graham crackers and the remaining peanut butter mixture.
  • Top with a final layer of graham crackers.
    Spread remaining Cool Whip on top.
  • Sprinkle the peanut butter cups on top and drizzle with fudge sauce.
    Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
