Preparation
Can you make peanut butter fluff ahead of time?
This dessert can be prepared up to a day in advance and kept in the refrigerator or up to a month ahead and stored in the freezer.
Do you have to use Oreos?
No! Try it with whatever cookies you like. Maybe Nutter Butters or peanut butter cookies to make it double peanut butter, or even with chocolate chip cookies!
Storage and leftovers
How long does peanut butter fluff last?
Leftovers will keep in the refrigerator for 2 – 3 days, longer than that and it may deteriorate in texture and get runny.
Do leftovers need to be refrigerated?
Leftover fluff should be covered or put into a sealed container and kept in the refrigerator.

How to Make Peanut Butter Lush
Peanut Butter Lush
Ingredients
- 36 Oreo cookies
- 6 tablespoons butter melted
- 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 3 cups and 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 container Cool Whip
- 2 3.9 ounce packages chocolate instant pudding
Instructions
- Crush your Oreos in the food processor and pulse in the melted butter. Press the cookie mixture into the bottom of a 9 x 13 inch baking dish (I use a measuring cup to help press the crust down). Place the pan in the refrigerator or freezer to set up.
- Mix cream cheese and peanut butter together with a mixer until light and fluffy then add in 2 tablespoons of milk, and sugar. Mix well. Spread over the crust.
- In a bowl, combine chocolate instant pudding with 3 cups cold milk and whisk for 2 minutes. Spread the pudding over the cream cheese layer.
- Top the whole thing with the cool-whip. If desired, swirl with pudding and peanut butter if desired. Place in the freezer for 1 hour, or the refrigerator for 4 hours before serving.

WOW – this dessert is so yummy! I made it last weekend and I’m already getting request to do it again!
This is one of those desserts that is gone within minutes! It has a little bit of everyone’s favorites! Layered desserts are the best!
We loved it! Was super easy to put together and had just enough peanut butter flavor in it!
Can you use Graham crackers instead of Oreo cookies?
Sure š
Can this be prepared as a pie and frozen to serve at a later time?
