Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 24–26 Oreo cookies (regular, not double-stuffed)
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Filling and Topping
- 16 Oreo cookies, chopped or crushed
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups cold heavy whipping cream
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- Pinch of salt (optional)
- Extra Oreos or chocolate shavings for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Make the crust. Add 24–26 Oreos to a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Pour in the melted butter and pulse until the mixture looks like damp sand. Alternatively, crush the cookies in a zip-top bag with a rolling pin and mix them with melted butter in a bowl.
- Press the crust. Pour the crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie dish. Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press it firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides to form a tight crust that holds together well.
- Chill the crust. Refrigerate the crust for 20–30 minutes to set it, which helps maintain its crispness when filled.
- Whip the cream. In a cold bowl, beat the heavy cream with granulated sugar until medium-stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat to keep it fluffy and smooth. Set aside.
- Make the cream cheese base. In a separate bowl, beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt until very smooth and creamy, about 1–2 minutes, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese base in two additions using a spatula, mixing with a light hand to keep the filling airy.
- Add chopped Oreos. Fold in 10–12 chopped or crushed Oreos. You can choose the chunk size depending on your texture preference.
- Fill the crust. Spoon the prepared filling evenly into the chilled crust and smooth the top with a spatula for an even surface.
- Chill to set. Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the filling to firm up and the flavors to meld for clean, neat slices.
- Garnish and serve. Before serving, top the pie with extra crushed Oreos or chocolate shavings if desired. Use a sharp knife, wiping it between cuts, to slice cleanly.
Notes
- Use regular Oreos, not double-stuffed, for the best crust texture.
- Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature to avoid lumps.
- Don’t overbeat the whipped cream to prevent it from turning grainy or buttery.
- Chilling the crust before filling helps keep it crisp under the creamy filling.
- For clean slices, chill the pie overnight and wipe the knife between cuts.
- Optional garnish options include extra crushed Oreos or chocolate shavings for added texture and decoration.
