January 24th is National Peanut Butter Day! Did you know that most peanut butter in U.S. grocery stores are capped with a PHOENIX closure? To celebrate this amazing holiday we are sharing a recipe featuring Skippy Peanut Butter submitted by Food Safety Manager, Tangie Helms for our 130th anniversary cookbook.

For this recipe you will need:

  • 36 chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreos)
  • 1/3 cup melted butter
  • 8 oz of cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup SMOOTH SKIPPY PEANUT BUTTER
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 1/2 cup whipped topping
  • 2 boxes of instant chocolate pudding (4 serving size)
  • 2 3/4 cup milk
  • Additional whipped topping
  • 1 bag of Resse’s mini peanut butter cups
  • Peanut butter chips
  • Chocolate syrup or melted peanut butter
  1. Prepare Crust: finely crush cookies. Stir in melted butter and press into a 9×13″ pan. Place in freezer.
  2. Prepare Peanut Butter Layer: with mixer on medium, cream cheese, milk & peanut butter until fluffy. Slowly add in powdered sugar. Gently fold in whipped topping. Spread over crust and place back into the freezer.
  3. Prepare Chocolate Layer: mix together both boxes of pudding mix and milk. Spread the pudding onto the peanut butter layer and refrigerate for 5 minutes.
  4. Top with remaining whipped topping, chopped Resse’s, peanut butter chips and chocolate sauce. Refrigerate at least 3 hours.
