Notes

  1. Make It No-Bake! If you swap the homemade Oreo crust with a pre-made chocolate crumb crust, you've got a no-bake pie.
  2. Crust: Pulse the Oreo cookies in a food processor so that there are no large pieces. You can also put the cookies in a plastic storage bag and crush them with a rolling pin. The texture should be like sand. Make sure that the cookie mixture is firmly packed along the bottom and sides of the pie pan so the crust does not crumble when serving.
  3. Freeze To Firm: To get a really nice pie slice with clean edges, freeze the pie for 30 minutes before serving.
  4. Garnish: When ready to serve, top with whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
