A quick, no-bake pie featuring a creamy cream cheese and whipped cream filling layered with crunchy Butterfinger candy pieces, set on a buttery graham cracker crust. Perfect for an indulgent treat with a delightful texture contrast.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sheets, finely crushed)
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1 cup crushed Butterfinger candy bars (about 3 standard bars, chopped into small pieces)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Stir until evenly coated and mixture feels like damp sand. Press firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Compact tightly and chill in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes.
  2. Make the creamy filling: Beat softened cream cheese in a large bowl with an electric mixer until smooth, about 2 minutes. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then beat until well combined.
  3. Whip the cream: In a separate chilled bowl, whip cold heavy cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Avoid overwhipping.
  4. Fold the whipped cream: Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in batches until light and fluffy with no streaks.
  5. Add the candy layers: Fold in crushed Butterfinger candy pieces carefully, reserving some for garnish.
  6. Assemble and chill: Spoon filling over chilled crust, smooth the top, and sprinkle reserved candy bits. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight to set.

Notes

Use softened cream cheese for smooth filling. Whip cream until stiff peaks form but do not overwhip. Chop Butterfinger bars into small pieces to maintain crunch. Chill pie overnight for best texture and flavor melding. For gluten-free crust, substitute graham crackers with gluten-free crumbs or almond flour. Dairy-free versions can use vegan cream cheese and coconut cream.
