This dessert does not require an introduction. It is amazing, delicious and even better? If you use prebought brownies-or brownies from your freezer that you made say, last month then this dessert will be…… NO BAKE! Yup, you read that right. This is a show stopping dessert that will leave everyone smiling. I mean it has peanut butter cup-what else does one need in a dessert?!!!!!

Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Cheesecake

Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • No Bake Peanut Butter Cup Brownie Cheesecake
  • Ingredients
  • *I used Fairytale Brownies to make this no-bake!! Or use one 19 1/2 oz brownie mix prepared in 9x13 pan according to package directions, bake ahead of time and freeze until ready to assemble
  • 1 cup hot fudge sauce divided
  • 2 8 oz packages cream cheese, room temperature
  • 1 ½ cups creamy peanut butter
  • 1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 12 peanut butter cups chopped (I used 11 because hey, you gotta eat just one!)

Instructions
 

  • Directions:
  • Bake brownies and when cool, cut into squares.
  • Press 3/4 of the brownie squares into the base of a 9" Springform pan. Reserve rest of brownies.
  • Heat hot fudge sauce for 30 seconds in microwave and then spread 3/4 cup onto brownie base. Set aside.
  • In mixer,  beat cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk.
  • In a separate bowl, beat heavy cream and powdered sugar on high until stiff peaks form. Reserve 1 cup of whipped cream and set it aside.
  • Fold the rest of the whipped cream into the peanut butter mixture. It should be smooth and creamy.
  • Spread half of the peanut butter mixture on top of brownie base. Cut rest of brownies into small cubes and sprinkle on top.
  • Spread on the rest of the  peanut butter mix.
  • Spread on the reserved whipped cream.
  • Sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups on top and drizzle with remaining hot fudge sauce.
  • Chill for at least 4 hours.
  • Remove sides of springform pan when ready to serve. Dig in!!!! Can store covered in fridge 3 days.

      I have no idea how to make it dairy free but the gluten free would be done by buying gluten free brownie mix and make the brownies yourself. That is what I am going to do.

      I also have to be gluten free and dairy free and want to try this. Daiya makes a good df cream cheese and here’s a link to a df sweetened condensed milk recipe. I look forward to trying it!

    I wonder if instead of the heavy cream and powdered sugar you could substitute whip cream or cool whip?

    Reply
    • Marci says

      December 23, 2016 at 2:49 am

      Of course you can use cool whip that’s what beating heavy cream and powdered sugar together makes

    Hi, dumb question but you mentioned “In mixer, beat cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk” I assume you beat sweetened condensed milk that with a mixer until smooth?? (I know y’all are laughing) lol
