Ingredients

Peanut Butter Cookie Crust

  • 1/2 cup peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar packed
  • 1 large egg room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Frosting

  • 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese softened to room temperature
  • 1/2 stick (1/4 cup) unsalted butter softened to room temperature
  • 1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup caramel sauce I just used jarred caramel ice cream topping
  • 1 (8 oz) package Cool Whip thawed

Topping

  • 2 cups chopped snickers
  • 1 1/2 - 2 granny smith apples thinly sliced
  • caramel sauce

Instructions

Peanut Butter Cookie Crust

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and grease a 12 in round non stick pizza pan with cooking spray.
  • Using a stand mixer, cream together peanut butter, oil, and both sugars until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Beat in the egg and vanilla extract for 30 seconds.
  • Whisk together the dry ingredients: flour, salt, baking powder, and baking soda and then beat the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients. It will be very crumbly! That's ok.
  • Dump the cookie dough onto the greased pan and use your hands to press the dough evenly over the pan.
  • Prick the cookie all over with a fork (like you would with pie crust - this helps the cookie from rising too much).
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10-15 minutes or until golden.
  • Let cool completely before frosting.

Frosting

  • Cream together cream cheese and unsalted butter until fluffy, about 2 minutes.
  • Scrape down the bottom and sides of the bowl.
  • Beat in vanilla pudding mix and powdered sugar. It will be very thick.
  • Again, scrape down the bottom of sides of the bowl.
  • Now beat in the vanilla extract and caramel sauce.
  • Once combined, on the lowest setting of your stand mixer, beat in the cool whip for 30 seconds.
  • Using a spatula, gently fold in the cool whip the rest of the way.
  • Frost the cooled cookie.
  • Topping:
  • Top frosting with thinly sliced apples, chopped snickers, and drizzle with more caramel sauce!
  • Serve immediately or store in the fridge, covered!
