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. 

This is an easy No Churn Butterfinger Ice Cream recipe in a chocolate cookie pie crust (either one from the store or my homemade Oreo crust recipe). It’s a frozen pie that’s absolutely delicious, easy to make, and perfect for summer.

Ingredient Tips for Butterfinger Pie

  • 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. Condensed milk is the backbone of the ice cream.
  • Make sure you use no-stir peanut butter (shelf stable) to achieve the correct consistency. Natural peanut butter has too much oil to make ice cream with.
  • Cool Whip is the secret ingredient to all no-bake pies! You can substitute 3 cups fresh whipped cream instead.
  • Use fun-size Butterfinger candy bars, chopped them. You can use a food processor to get the crushed Butterfingers or use Butterfinger Bits.

Dorothy’s 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!

  2. 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.

  3. I feel for that dad with his laptop by the pool. .  he probably works his ass off to provide for his family. .  and who knows? he probably also wishes he could take time off while on vacation ..  I was that person when I was working full-time at my advertising and marketing job and we were in Hawaii too. .  my husband threatened to toss my phone into the ocean because I was responding to urgent emails etc. .  anyway, I think it’s about balance. .  but it’s easier said than done, esp when things are crazy at work. .  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!
