Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 24 pieces chocolate sandwich cookies (e.g., Oreos)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream (cold)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 cup whipped cream (for topping)
- 2 tablespoons chocolate shavings or curls (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
1. Prepare the Crust: Add the chocolate sandwich cookies to a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs. Alternatively, place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
3. Transfer the crumb mixture to a 9-inch pie pan. Press firmly with your hands or the bottom of a glass to form an even crust along the bottom and up the sides. Place the crust in the refrigerator to set while you prepare the filling.
4. Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
5. Whip the Cream: In a large bowl, use a hand mixer or stand mixer to whip the cold heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form.
6. Add Flavor: Add the vanilla extract and powdered sugar to the whipped cream and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
7. Combine the Filling: Slowly fold the cooled melted chocolate into the whipped cream mixture, taking care not to deflate the whipped cream. Mix until fully combined and uniform in color.
8. Assemble the Pie: Remove the crust from the refrigerator and spread the chocolate filling evenly into the crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
9. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the filling is fully set.
10. Decorate and Serve: Before serving, top the pie with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate shavings or curls, if desired. Slice and enjoy!
