salted caramel peanut butter cream pie
Just looking at these photos makes me shed a tear.
Why? Because this pie is allll gone — partially thanks to my family, but mostly because of me. I did this to myself. And now I have to wait until later this summer to make it again. Harrumph.
Until then, let’s talk about why you need to get this nearly no-bake pie into your life. Two words: Caramel yogurt.
I’ll give you a moment to retrieve your jaw from the floor.
Soooo the geniuses of Liberté are soon releasing two new indulgent flavors of yogurt — caramel and cappuccino — and when they asked me to sample them and come up with dessert recipes using the new yogurts I was all “YES HECK YES.” Caramel-flavored yogurt, are you kidding me? Cappuccino yogurt — is this real life? The answer is yes, hallelujah and now let’s all camp out in front of the grocery store until the first shipment of the new yogurts come in. Or, perhaps more realistically/less creepily, keep a keen eye out for them in the yogurt aisle for when they arrive later this summer. Your choice. I won’t tell you which one I’m doing so you don’t think I’m weird and we can stay friends.
Anywho, I promised we’d talk about this pie. Here’s the situation: There’s a chocolate cookie crust that you pre-bake (and that’s the end of the baking for this one!). Then, you top it with a filling of frozen whipped topping, sea salt, sugar and Liberté Méditerranée Caramel Yogurt (uhhhh yeah this definitely tips the scales in favor of indulgence and against health, but YOLO), freeze it until the topping is set, then top it with homemade whipped topping, a drizzle of peanut butter glaze and a sprinkling of peanuts.
I’ll give you another moment to retrieve your jaw from the floor.
Here are a few pro tips for making the most of this magical frozen treat: One, run a sharp, clean knife under hot water and dry it off just before slicing the pie, so you can get pretty/perfect slices. Two, let the pie slices thaw a bit before eating them — that slightly-melted-but-still-cold moment is DA BEST for this pie. And three, don’t feel any guilt if you find yourself compelled to finish the whole thing in one sitting. I mean, someone’s got to eat it before it completely melts, amiright? Ahem.
If you need me, I’ll be in the tent outside my grocery store — I mean, hanging by the yogurt aisle — I mean, waiting patiently at home until I hear word that my salty, caramely, peanut buttery pie dreams can come true again.
P.S. Keep your eyes peeled for a dessert recipe using the cappuccino yogurt — it’s coming soon!

Oh my, this has got to be to die for!! I love both salted caramel and peanut butter, I don’t think I could make this and keep fitting in my pants haha! And it’s beautiful!
One minute please while I pick up my jaw from the floor. This pie is unreal! Amazing!
I would have eaten the whole thing too! I’m feeling tortured that we need to wait to make this because I want to face plant in that pie! 🙂
I need to stuff my face with this entire pie… right now!
Can’t wait to see what’s happening with the cappuccino yogurt!
You bring the pie and I’ll bring the lawn chairs for our camp-out. It is ON.
Seriously, I’ll be stalking my local supermarket until I can get my hands on these.
This is a pie I need today. I might eat the whole thing, but that’s ok because it yogurt and not ice cream!!
Oh my. Weak in the knees. I want this pie in my life!
There are so many things I love about this. I mean, the peanut butter/caramel combo (obviously), but more importantly, the no bake/frozen duo. Cannot wait to try this!
Definitely trying this!! I love peanut butter pie, and can only imagine how much better it is with salted caramel!
Oh my. This looks simply delectable!! I love how simple this no-bake dessert is…you can be I’ll be keeping an eye out for these yogurts at the grocery store!
Tieghan — I like the way you think! 😉
I’m drooling. I have GOT to try this Steph!!
Yum!! Salted caramel and peanut butter are two of my favorite flavors. I need to try this when I have other people around to help me eat it.
Yoghurt?? I am in love. As a yoghurt (or dairy addict) this is calling me to eat it for breakfast.
I need caramel yogurt in my life…. and really need this pie!
I’ll take a slice please. Oh no! It’s gone? Sigh. Guess I’ll have to make one myself. But I’m sure my family will devour mine too.
Happy Thursday!
It’s a good thing I’m typing these words instead of speaking them, because my jaw is still on the floor. CARAMEL yogurt? CAPPUCCINO? Shoot me dead. This pie is insanity! You don’t have to tell me twice to eat the whole thing in one sitter…sister’s got a need for PB and that need shall be filled via PIE!
Love everything about this pie! Can’t wait to get my hands on that yogurt!

Liberte Mediterranee yogurt is awesome and the Caramel is my fave.
I love salted caramel and can’t wait to try this recipe.
I’m wondering if whipped cream could be substituted for the whipped topping.
I will totally be camping out at my grocery store, too. And I feel comfortable telling you that – I know you won’t be all judgy.
Pretty sure caramel yogurt is about to become my new best friend. Forever and ever. I’ll need to buy extra … some to eat all my itself and some to make this awesome pie. Thanks for a great recipe!

This pie does REALLY good.
For the record, though, Stonyfield Organic made caramel yogurt – regular and Greek-style – years ago. I’m fairly certain that they made a cappuccino yogurt, as well, but it may have been mocha.
Very good flavors, both.
Staci — Oh, I did not know that! Thanks for letting me know. 🙂
