Ingredients
Scale
For the crust:
- 24 Oreo cookies (regular, not Double Stuf)
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the filling:
- 1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 ½ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
For garnish (optional):
- Crushed Oreos
- Chocolate shavings
- Whipped cream swirls
Instructions
- Make the crust: Crush the Oreos into fine crumbs using a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin. Mix the crushed cookies with melted butter until fully combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
- Prepare the filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy with no lumps. Stir in the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips and vanilla extract until completely incorporated into the mixture.
- Fold in the whipped topping: Gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the chocolate cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain, creating a fluffy and light filling.
- Assemble the pie: Pour the prepared filling evenly into the chilled Oreo crust. Use a spatula to smooth the top for an even surface.
- Chill & set: Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 to 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the filling to firm up.
- Decorate & serve: Just before serving, garnish the pie with optional crushed Oreos, chocolate shavings, and whipped cream swirls for a festive touch. Slice and enjoy your delicious chocolate Oreo pie!
Notes
- Room-temperature cream cheese: Letting it soften ensures a smooth, lump-free filling.
- Make ahead: This pie is ideal for preparing the day before Thanksgiving to save time on the big day.
- Storing leftovers: Keep the pie covered in the refrigerator to maintain freshness for up to 3 days.
