I made this using Reese's peanut butter cups and peanut butter chips. It was so good and didn't last long one my family got a taste of it. Will definitely make again; maybe for Christmas.

Yes, you can make this without the peanut butter. You do not need to replace the ingredient. You can either use vanilla pudding or even try chocolate pudding. Thank you for your question!

I'm sure you can use any other nut butter, or Sneaky Chef's No Nut Butter

There is so many different ways to make Trifes, with so many different kinds of layers, this one really sounds delicious and it is a bit different than some I have made. I will make this one the next time that I need a dish to take when we are invited to a covered dish.

So easy to make. I made this for an open house and it was a hit with EVERYONE. There was not a crumb left in the bowl. Had a lot of the gals ask me for the recipe so I'm glad it was an easy one to remember. They really liked the addition of the Oreo cookies. Thanks Mr. Food!
