This easy No-Bake Cookies and Cream Pie is a family favorite. Cookies, cream cheese, whipped topping and a pie crust are all that are needed!
A DELICIOUSLY EASY NO-BAKE DESSERT RECIPE
This particular cool treat involves some of my favorite things...Cookies and Cool Whip whipped topping. This is a no-bake cheesecake pie that is perfect for kids to help make. They can help break the cookies and add in ingredients.
TIPS FOR MAKING COOKIES AND CREAM PIE:
- And the most fun? Adding the sprinkles on top. The best part for me is this whips up in a flash. So it makes a perfect sweet treat for a busy weeknight. And I feel like a rock star because I'm making something special for my family. So it's a win-win all around.
- You can really tailor this to your family's tastes. Chocolate cream-filled cookies work great. Or try using a chocolate cookie crust. Lots of fun variations for this recipe.
- You can serve it right away or let it set in the refrigerator to get really cold and it almost tastes like an ice cream pie.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED: (FULL RECIPE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE POST)
- rainbow candy cookies
- cream cheese
- sugar
- vanilla extract
- Cool Whip(whipped topping)
- graham cracker crust
- rainbow sprinkles
HOW TO MAKE COOKIES AND CREAM PIE:
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth (this is easiest if you use an electric hand or stand mixer.) Add in sugar and mix until combined and smooth.
Stir in vanilla extract. Next, fold in Cool Whip.
If you haven't done so already, crumble up the cookies. Leave them a bit chunky. You want to see larger bits of cookie in your pie. Fold in the chopped cookies to the mixture.
Spread mixture into graham cracker crust.
And then add sprinkles. Because everything is better with sprinkles.
Put in the refrigerator to cool for a few hours. Then slice and serve.

Add 1/2 C sour cream and beat into the cream cheese. Wonderful addition and everyone loved this pie!
Debra Dooley
Thanks, Pat, for the suggestion to add sour cream. It takes the “too sweet” away and makes the pie more reminiscent of a cheesecake. Passed it on to my friends also. Loved it!
Esther

My goodness I found this recipe on your site several years ago and used to make it frequently. I guess I must've forgotten about it because I haven't made it in a while.
It is delicious and easy peasy to make.
