Assembly

  • Pour milk into a bowl
  • Dip Oreo cookies into the milk for about 2-3 seconds on each side. You want them wet but not falling apart.
  • Line the bottom of a 9x9 pan with "milk soaked Oreos". I did have to break some of the cookies in half to fit to the edge

  • Top with ½ of the Peanut Butter Cream
  • Repeat one more layer of cookies and Peanut butter cream
  • Cover with plastic wrap (I stick toothpicks in the cake before putting on the wrap so it doesn't stick to the cake)
  • Refrigerate at least 4 hours (overnight is best)
  • Drizzle with Chocolate Syrup and serve with a glass of milk

  1. Oreos are better used as a pie crust. The peanut butter cream cheese as the filling! That is my plans next time I make it.

  2. I made this Peanut Butter Oreo Icebox Cake and my family begs for it now! It is RICH. I did use double stuff the first time–and it is better with regular oreos, not double stuff. I don’t think it gets quite as soft. Great recipe. We loved it!
