Enjoy this easy no-bake Butterfinger Ice Cream Pie, with a crunchy Oreo crust, peanut butter and lots of Butterfinger candy bars. This is the perfect frozen pie recipe – we absolutely loved it.
No Bake Butterfinger Ice Cream Pie
There’s a good reason why I’m always making Butterfinger recipes: Peanut butter! But this time, I’m making a homemade Butterfinger pie that requires no oven! Just mix in a few simple ingredients and let it freeze for a delicious no bake dessert.
Remember when I shared my post about how to make an Oreo crust? I made 3 pie crusts that day. One turned into a cheesecake, the other turned into a strawberry shortcake, and the final Oreo crust? Became this pie: A glorious No-Bake Butterfinger Ice Cream Pie!
Why you’ll love this recipe
- It takes just a few minutes to assemble
- Lots of Butterfingers and peanut butter
- It’s ice cream in an Oreo crust!
Ingredients Needed
- Oreo Crust: I’m always making my own Oreo crust at home since it’s so easy but a store-bought crust works fine. You could also use a graham cracker crust if you prefer.
- Sweetened condensed milk: do not confuse this for evaporated milk since the cans look so similar
- Peanut butter: make sure you use no-stir peanut butter for the best results
- Cool Whip: this is the secret ingredient to all no-bake pies! You can substitute 3 cups fresh whipped cream instead.
- Butterfingers: I’m using fun-size Butterfinger candy bars and I finely chopped them. You can use a food processor to get the crushed Butterfingers or use Butterfinger Bits.
How to make Butterfinger pie
- Stir sweetened condensed milk and peanut butter in a large bowl until stiff peaks form. Stir in vanilla. Fold in whipped topping. Fold in crushed Butterfinger candy bars.
- Spread peanut butter filling in the prepared chocolate pie crust.
- Cover the peanut butter pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Sprinkle with remaining crushed Butterfingers and serve.
Expert Tips
- You can use fat-free or regular sweetened condensed milk.
- You can use regular, light, fat-free, or sugar-free Cool Whip. You can also use fresh whipped cream if you prefer. Just be careful, if you’re using fresh, not to break the cream when you’re stirring it all together.
- This pie freezes soft. It’s not a hard-pack ice cream, but more like a combination of soft serve/frozen/cheesecake texture.
- Add more Butterfingers if you want. More is always better!
FAQs

Oh my gosh Dorothy! This pie!! I am crazy about anything with butterfingers and when I saw this come in my inbox yesterday I wanted to make it right away! Sometime this week for sure 🙂 It’s beautiful!Â
Thanks Chelsea!
Dorothy – Welcome back! It looks as though you were able to enjoy yourself quite a bit during your time away. Hawaii seems like the best place to unwind and focus on putting work away for a while. 🙂 This butterfinger pie looks so creamy and delicious. I think I need to try this asap.
Thanks Erin, it sure is!
I feel for that dad with his laptop by the pool. . Â he probably works his ass off to provide for his family. . Â and who knows? he probably also wishes he could take time off while on vacation .. Â I was that person when I was working full-time at my advertising and marketing job and we were in Hawaii too. . Â my husband threatened to toss my phone into the ocean because I was responding to urgent emails etc. . Â anyway, I think it’s about balance. . Â but it’s easier said than done, esp when things are crazy at work. . Â I’m so happy for you that you got to really take some time off and enjoy your family and lucky for that man, his son was kinda cool about it and didn’t hold it against him. And dude, seriously, this pie?!!! oh mygawd, deliciousness!!! Hope you guys have a great 4th!Â
I know that feeling where you just CAN’T STOP. I have it all the time! Thanks for reading Alice!

I’m so glad you just relaxed and enjoyed MAUI! I’d love to make it to Hawaii some day 🙂 And as for your eating plan……I’ll take your piece of pie, please!

I’ve had Butterfinger pie on my “to-do” list FOREVER. Now I just want to make yours  – this looks amazing Dorothy!
It’s been on my list forever too! #greatminds
I can’t wait to see your Hawaii photos! I ‘m so glad that you took a break! Â The last time we were there, on NewYear’s Eve 5 years ago, everyone was watching a gorgeous sunset on the beach, and I saw a guy walking along the sand looking down, with his cell phone pressed to his ear, frowning. Â What a waste of paradise!
A total waste! I totally need to sort through photos. Such a job!
This looks delicious and soooo sinful! PB and chocolate for lifeee. Cute fork!
You just stole my heart with ice cream and butterfingers!!
