Ingredients

Quantities are shown as originally provided.

  • 1 package (12.5oz) Oatmeal Cookies
  • 1 cup MnMs
  • 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
  • ¼ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons light brown sugar
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup quick oats
  • ¾ cup heavy whipping cream
  • 3 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

  1. 1

    Chill a metal mixing bowl in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. Prepare the whipped cream. Pour 1 ¼ cups heavy whipping cream into the chilled bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat the heavy cream on medium-high speed until the cream starts to thicken. Slowly add the powdered sugar and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

  2. 2

    In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and peanut butter and beat until well combined.

  3. 3

    Next add the sugar and vanilla extract and beat until well combined. Fold in the prepared whipped cream and mix until smooth. Refrigerate.

  4. 4

    For the cookie dough: Soften the butter in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. Combined the softened butter with the sugars and mix until smooth.

  5. 5

    Add the peanut butter and vanilla extract and continuing mixing until well combined. Finally, add the flour, salt and quick oats and beat until a dough starts to form. Set aside.

  6. 6

    Line the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan with parchment paper. Assemble a layer of oatmeal cookies on the bottom, breaking apart the cookies as needed to fit.

  7. 7

    Divide both the mousse and the cookie dough into thirds. Spread 1/3 of the mousse over the bottom layers of oatmeal cookies. Crumble 1/3 of the cookie dough over the mousse and then sprinkle with a handful of MnMs. Repeat two more times. Save the top layer of cookie dough and MnM to add right before serving. Refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours.

  8. 8

    Prepare a second batch of whipped cream following the same instructions as listed above. Use a large open round tip to pipe the border of the cake. Sprinkle the top with remaining cookie dough and MnMs.
