Instructions
- Step 1: Crush 24 Oreo cookies finely in a food processor or place in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin until you have fine crumbs. Stir in 6 tbsp melted unsalted butter until the mixture is evenly moistened.
- Step 2: Press the cookie crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to set.
- Step 3: Heat 1 cup heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer, about 3-4 minutes. Remove from heat and pour over 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for 2 minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy.
- Step 4: In a large bowl, beat 8 oz softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup powdered sugar, and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Fold in the melted chocolate mixture gently until fully combined.
- Step 5: Pour the chocolate filling into the chilled Oreo crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until firm.
- Step 6: Before serving, spread 1 cup whipped cream evenly over the top for a light finish.
