Ingredients in No-Bake Snickers Pie
This pie can be put together in 10 minutes. That’s it! The filling is a cool and creamy peanut butter cheesecake that is packed with flavor. Check out the recipe card at the bottom of the post for all of the exact measurements.
- Cream cheese: This creates the smooth and tangy filling for the pie.
- Chunky peanut butter: mixed with the cream cheese, this is what brings on that classic snickers flavor.
- Powdered sugar: The powdered sugar adds in some sweetness to balance out the tang in the cream cheese. It also makes it so that the filling stays nice and smooth.
- Cool whip: Make sure that your cool whip isn’t frozen! If it is, you need to thaw it to room temperature so that it mixes into the filling without any lumps.
- Snickers Bars: Cut up snickers bars go into the filling and you will also sprinkle some on top as a garnish!
- Graham cracker pie crust: You can make this from scratch (instructions are on the recipe card) or you can skip this step and just buy one pre-made at the store!
How to Make No Bake Snickers Bar Pie
This pie will be the biggest hit wherever it goes. And it is perfect for upcoming gatherings because it is so easy to make!
- Make the Crust: Add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter to a medium bowl and mix until combined. It should resemble damp sand. (You can also use a pre-made crust instead).
- Press into Pan: Press the mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie pan, going all the way up the sides. Use your fingers or the bottom of a flat measuring cup or glass to really pack the crumbs together. Chill the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
- Make Filling: Add the cream cheese, peanut butter, and sugar to a large bowl and beat with a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until well combined.
- Fold and Garnish: Fold in the whipped topping, followed by the chopped Snickers, reserving a few of the Snickers for garnishing the top.
- Add Filling to Crust: Spread the filling evenly in the chilled pie shell and top with the reserved Snickers and chopped peanuts.
- Chill: Chill for at least 3 hours.
- Add sauce: Drizzle with caramel sauce before serving.
Substitutes and Variations for No Bake Snickers Bar Pie
The best part about making pies at home is that you can switch them up! Here are a few ideas on different variations for this no bake snickers bar pie:
- Change the crust: Use an Oreo or chocolate graham cracker crust instead of a regular graham cracker crust.
- Add sauce: Drizzle chocolate sauce and caramel sauce over the top before serving. For some extra flavor, add caramel sauce on top of the crust and spread it on the crust before layering on the filling.
- Add peanuts: Add 1/3 cup chopped peanuts to the filling along with the snickers pieces.
Storage Tips
Since this no bake snickers bar pie is best when you have time to chill it in the fridge, it is great to make ahead of time!
- In the Refrigerator: Once your pie is assembled, let it chill in the refrigerator for 2-3 hours. If you want to store it longer, make sure that it’s covered in an airtight container (I like to use these for my pies) and it will last 3-4 days.
- In the Freezer: Stored in an airtight container, this will stay good in the freezer for at least a month. Let it thaw for a few hours in the refrigerator before serving.

Tips for making Snickers Pie
- You can make your own graham cracker crumbs by pulsing 12 whole graham crackers in a food processor or blender until fully blended. Or you can crush the crackers by hand by placing them in a large ziplock bag and using a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs.
- To use real whipped cream instead of whipped topping, whip 1 1/2 cups of cold heavy whipping cream and 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar to medium-stiff peaks. Use in place of the whipped topping in the recipe card.
Can you make it a couple days early and freeze it?
Yes, that is a great idea! XOXO
I made this for a card party night. It was the hit of the night. Sooooo easy! I’m making for another party and am going to try chopping snickers bites instead of the full size. Any idea how many bites equals a full size bar?
YAY! That is awesome! Thank you so much for sharing! I am not sure how many bites would equal a full size candy bar. Sorry about that! So glad everyone loved it! XOXO
Please, what size snicker bars!
I usually purchase the regular size snicker bars but you are welcome to use the large ones for added tastiness! Hope you enjoy this pie! XOXO
Can you do this with resees’s peanut butter cups as well?
I make a very similar pie with a chocolate graham crust and mini reece’s cups and peanut butter baking chips instead of snickers. I use the mini reece’s pieces baking pieces and chocolate whipped cream to garnish the top.
Only knowing that my boyfriend’s favorite candy is a Snickers, I made this for his birthday last year. I’ve returned for year two, this pie is amazing; I love it and I’m not even a huge Snickers fan.
That is awesome!! I am so glad that it is his favorite! What a great girlfriend you are!! XOXO
The recipe was absolutely fantastic! I used creamy peanut butter because that is what I had and added chopped peanuts in and on top along with some Magic Shell chocolate sauce. Thank you for sharing this recipe! Became on of my favorites.
Great recipe. These No Bake Snickers Bar Pie look nice. Will try to make these. Thanks so much for sharing.
Hey Alyssa
I am a little envious of your kids 🙂 This looks so decadent and yummy!
Can I use creamy peanut butter instead of chunky.
Hi! Just wondering if there is anything that can be substituted for the cool whip? I’m in Australia and we don’t have it
You could always whip heavy cream and fold it in. 🙂
I’m to make this but the recipe doesn’t say what size snickers to use. I need to make 3 of them for work.
Thanks,
Rhonda
It is the full size candy bar. 🙂
I made the Snicker’s Bar Pie. Everyone loved it.
This is my third one. We’re having Potluck after
our meeting. I made that for desert..
Am definately going to make this tomorrow! Am a chocoholic!
I’ve made lots of your recipes and they are always the best!! Just finished eating this and wow! It was so amazing. I ended up making my own pie crust only because I had the ingredients on hand. Thank you so much for sharing this fabulous recipe, we loved it!
I need to make this, but I am leaving a reply to let you know that you’re not alone. I, too, wasn’t ever really a chocolate person. I would eat a Butterfinger bar next to a trash can so I could spit out the chocolate and eat the miscellaneous stuff inside! Never did that to a snickers, but I feel our stories are pretty similar. Power in numbers! And seriously this recipe looks amazing and really easy. Will try it at my BBQ next Sunday!
Haha! I love getting comments like these to let me know that I am not alone. And this pie is amazing! You will have to let me know if you try it!
Hey girl yummy for my tummy!
This looks terrific! What size Snickers bars did you use? Thanks!
Hi! I just used a bag of fun sized snickers… that way you have some left over too 🙂
