Ingredients Notes
To make this pie, you’ll need Oreo cookies, butter, cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla extract, heavy whipping cream, and additional Oreo cookies for topping. For sourcing, any grocery store will stock these common ingredients. If you’re out of cream cheese, a mascarpone substitution adds a richer flavor. Ensure your whipping cream is chilled before use to get the perfect whipped consistency.
Recipe Steps
Step 1
Start by crushing the Oreo cookies in a food processor until they’re finely ground. Mix with melted butter to create the crust. Press the mixture into a pie pan and chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in the sugar and vanilla extract, and continue to beat until creamy and well combined.
Step 3
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated.

Storage Options
Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Although it’s unlikely you’ll have any left, this pie also freezes well for up to a month. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then foil before freezing. To reheat, simply let it thaw in the fridge overnight.
Variations & Substitutions
For a twist, try using mint-flavored Oreos for a refreshing spin, or peanut butter Oreos for a rich, nutty variation. For a dietary-friendly option, use a gluten-free Oreo alternative and coconut cream instead of heavy cream.
