Oreo Chocolate Cream Pie

1. 1

   For the crust:

2. 2

   Preheat the oven to 375 F.

3. 3

   Take the Oreo cookies and crush them in a plastic bag. In a food processor, pulse the crushed cookies until they are a fine consistency. Add the vanilla and sugar to the food processor and pulse to combine. Then slowly add the melted butter into the food processor while pulsing to combine. Continue until the mixture starts to stick together slightly.

4. 4

   Grease a standard size pie plate and add the Oreo cookie mixture. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the pan until you have formed a crust. Cover with foil and place a weight on top (pie weights or a small oven proof frying pan works). Place the pie crust into the oven for about 5 minutes. Take it out of the oven, set on a rack and let it cool.

   For the pudding:

6. 6

   Prepare the chocolate pudding as directed on the box. Place the room temperature cream cheese into a bowl and add the vanilla and sugar. Mix together until light and fluffy. Fold in the pudding until completely combined.

7. 7

   For the whipped cream:

8. 8

   Pour the heavy cream into the bowl of a mixer, add the remaining sugar and vanilla and beat until light and fluffy.

9. 9

   After the pudding and crust have cooled pour the pudding into the pie crust and refrigerate until it has solidified. Crush the remaining cookies for the topping. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the pie and sprinkle the crushed cookies over the top for garnish.
