Preheat the oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
Crush chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
Combine the cookie crumbs with the melted butter in a bowl and mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the cookie mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to pack it down tightly.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes. Remove and let it cool completely.
In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine the dark chocolate chips and heavy cream. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until the chocolate is melted and smooth. Let the ganache cool slightly.
Spread a thin layer of the ganache over the cooled crust and refrigerate until firm, about 15 minutes.
In a large bowl, gently fold the softened vanilla ice cream with the raspberry preserves and fresh raspberries until just combined, creating a marbled effect.
Pour the raspberry ice cream mixture into the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Freeze for at least 4 hours, or until completely firm.
Before serving, top the pie with whipped cream piped or dolloped on top, a sprinkle of dark chocolate shavings, and fresh raspberries for garnish.
Cut the pie into slices with a sharp knife, dipping the blade in hot water between cuts to ensure clean slices. Serve immediately and enjoy!
