Ingredients You’ll Need

Oreo Crumbs. At the base Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Lasagna is a delicious layer of Oreo crumbs. This crust layer provides a pleasing texture and mouthfeel which is an ideal contrast to the lighter, creamier layers on top of it.

Unsalted Butter. When melted, the butter holds all those tiny Oreo crumbs tightly together, binding them tight. The result is an absolutely perfect crust!

Cream Cheese. There’s nothing quite like the tart, tangy taste of real cream cheese. Adding it to our dessert provides a rich and creamy texture while also offsetting the much sweeter layers of the dish.

Creamy Peanut Butter. Now we’re getting down to business! It’s almost impossible to have chocolate without peanut butter and this recipe is no exception. In this recipe, peanut butter adds a distinctive depth and complements the chocolate nicely. It also adds an additional element of smoothness and richness.

Powdered Sugar. As if the creamy layers weren’t dreamy enough on their own, then adding powdered sugar makes them even more irresistible!

Whipped Topping. Crowning our masterpiece is the whipped topping. Including it adds an airy mouthfeel and perfectly offsets the rich and creamy layers beneath it.

Instant Chocolate Pudding Mix. You can never have enough chocolate and with the inclusion of chocolate pudding, that’s definitely the case here. You get the double benefit of making the treat even smoother and intensifying the chocolate flavor of the dessert.

Cold Milk. To nail that pudding consistency only one ingredient will do – ice cold milk. So, don’t forget it!

Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. The iconic candy is the perfect topping for this no-bake wonder and a scrumptious way to make sure you get even more chocolate and peanut butter flavor with each and every bite.

Chocolate Fudge Sauce. Including the chocolate fudge sauce gives your dessert a touch of class and also, an extra shot of temptation to go with it.

Warmed Peanut Butter. Because you can never have enough peanut butter we’ve saved the best for last. This creamy drizzle adds one last touch of nutty delight!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup Lasagna – No Hassle Prep!

Foundation First. Blend the Oreo crumbs with melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into a 9×13 baking dish to create the crust layer. Put it in the freezer to set. About 15-20 minutes should be enough.

Creamy Layers. While the crust is in the freezer, get a mixing bowl. Whisk the cream cheese, powdered sugar and peanut butter together.

Blend until the mix is smooth. Fold in half of the whipped topping and blend it in. Set the other half of the topping aside.

Pudding Prep. In another bowl, mix the chocolate pudding and cold milk. Stir until it thickens a little.

Assembly Time. Get the crust from the freezer. First, spread the mixture of peanut butter and cream cheese evenly. Next, get the pudding bowl and pour it on top of the previous layer. Finish off by spreading the other half of the whipped topping.

Garnish and Set. Sprinkle the chopped Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups on top. Drizzle the dessert with warmed peanut butter and chocolate fudge sauce.

Put everything in the fridge to chill for 4-5 hours. This gives time for all the layers (and flavors) to blend together.

Serve. Once the dessert has had a chance to set, slice, serve and enjoy!
