Topping Ingredients:
- 0.5 cup dry roasted salted peanuts, roughly chopped
- 0.25–0.5 cup caramel sauce, homemade or store-bought

Instructions
- Craft a rich, buttery foundation by pulverizing Oreo cookies and binding them with melted butter, pressing the crumbly mixture firmly across the entire pie dish to create a robust crust.
- Prepare a luxurious brownie base by whisking together wet ingredients until smooth, then gently incorporating dry components to form a silky batter with deep chocolate essence.
- Carefully pour the chocolate batter into the cookie crust, ensuring an even distribution and maintaining a consistent layer thickness.
- Bake the pie in a preheated oven, monitoring carefully to achieve a slightly puffy texture with a delicate, set center that promises rich, fudgy indulgence.
- Allow the brownie layer to cool completely, creating a stable foundation for subsequent layers and preventing unwanted moisture mixing.
- Construct a creamy filling by thoroughly blending marshmallow fluff and peanut butter, creating a smooth, decadent spread that complements the chocolate base.
- Generously distribute the marshmallow-peanut butter mixture across the cooled brownie, ensuring complete and even coverage.
- Enhance the pie’s textural profile by sprinkling chopped peanuts across the surface, adding a delightful crunch and nutty dimension.
- Elevate the dessert’s visual and flavor complexity by elegantly drizzling caramel and chocolate sauces in artistic patterns.
- Refrigerate briefly to set the layers and intensify flavor melding, then slice and serve this indulgent Snickers-inspired masterpiece.
