Ingredients
Scale
Cookie Dough
- 200 g salted butter
- 225 g light brown sugar
- 100 g granulated sugar
- 1 egg plus 1 egg yolk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 425 g all-purpose flour
- 2 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 400 g milk chocolate chips
Filling
- 400 g creamy peanut butter
- 200 g marshmallow cream
- 150 g Nutella
- Handful of white chocolate chips
- A few mini Toblerone candies, broken into triangles
- 6 mini Reese’s peanut butter cups
Garnish
- Dark chocolate chips, melted for drizzle
- Butterfinger pieces, to sprinkle on top
- Mini Reese’s peanut butter cups, one per slice
Instructions
- Prepare the Cookie Dough: Beat the salted butter with light brown and granulated sugar until creamy and fluffy. Add the egg, egg yolk, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, and kosher salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture and combine into a dough. Stir in the milk chocolate chips evenly.
- Divide Dough and Line Pan: Divide the cookie dough into three equal portions, about 475 g each. Line the bottom of an 8-inch removable bottom cheesecake pan or springform pan with parchment paper. For easier removal, consider spraying the pan lightly with nonstick spray. Press one third of the dough firmly into the bottom of the pan.
- Form the Crust Edge: Press the second third of the dough around the edges of the pan, building the walls up but not all the way to the top—about three-quarters high. This will form the pie crust to hold the fillings.
- Add Peanut Butter Layer: Melt the creamy peanut butter briefly until pourable but not hot. Pour it evenly over the bottom crust. Arrange the mini Reese’s peanut butter cups over the peanut butter, taking care that the peanut butter is not too hot to avoid melting the chocolate cups. Freeze the pie for 10-15 minutes to set this layer.
- Spread Nutella Layer: Microwave the Nutella for a few seconds to soften it, then carefully spread it over the chilled peanut butter layer. Sprinkle on white chocolate chips for added texture and flavor. Return the pie to the freezer for another 10-15 minutes to firm up.
- Apply Marshmallow Cream and Toblerone: Using a spatula lightly wetted with water, spread the marshmallow cream evenly over the Nutella layer. Top with the broken mini Toblerone pieces. Freeze the pie for one hour to solidify this layer.
- Seal with Final Dough Layer: Press the last third of the cookie dough evenly on top of the pie, sealing in all the fillings. Press the edges down slightly to avoid shrinkage during baking. Freeze the assembled pie for one more hour to set.
- Bake the Pie: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) convection setting. Bake the frozen cookie pie for 30 minutes until golden and cooked through. Let it cool to room temperature once baked.
- Chill Overnight: Refrigerate the cooled pie overnight to allow flavors to meld and the structure to set firmly.
- Serve and Garnish: Remove the pie from the pan and let it sit a few minutes at room temperature to ease removal from the sides. Serve each slice topped with a mini Reese’s peanut butter cup, drizzled with melted dark chocolate, and sprinkled with Butterfinger pieces for a crunchy finishing touch.
Notes
- To make removal easier, consider greasing the pan lightly with nonstick spray or butter before adding parchment.
- Be careful not to overheat the peanut butter or Nutella layers to prevent melting the chocolate components.
- Lightly wetting the back of the offset spatula helps spread sticky marshmallow cream more smoothly.
- Using an 8×3 inch pan is recommended to get the height and layer effect described.
- For best texture and flavor, chill the pie in the fridge overnight before slicing.
- Press dough edges firmly to avoid sinking during baking.
