It’s a delicious no-bake dessert perfect for any occasion that combines the nostalgic flavors of Oreos with smooth ice cream and a touch of chocolate drizzle.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 24 Oreo cookies with filling, crushed into fine crumbs
  • ⅓ cup salted butter, melted and cooled

Filling and Topping

  • 48 ounces (1.4 liters) cookies and cream ice cream, softened
  • ½ cup chocolate sauce, plus more for optional drizzle
  • 10 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped
  • Whipped topping, for optional garnish

Instructions

  1. Crush Cookies: Crush 24 Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing the cookies in a zip-top bag and crushing them with a rolling pin or the smooth side of a meat mallet.
  2. Mix Crust Ingredients: Combine the crushed cookie crumbs with melted and cooled salted butter until the mixture is well combined and resembles wet sand.
  3. Form Crust: Firmly press the buttered crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate to create an even crust. Place the crust in the freezer to set while you prepare the filling.
  4. Chop Remaining Cookies: Roughly chop the remaining 10 Oreo cookies into smaller pieces for layering and topping.
  5. Soften Ice Cream: Let the cookies and cream ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften for easier spreading.
  6. Layer Ice Cream: Remove the pie crust from the freezer and spread 3 cups of the softened ice cream evenly over the crust using a spatula or offset spatula to smooth the surface.
  7. Add Chocolate Sauce and Cookies: Drizzle the ½ cup of chocolate sauce over the first layer of ice cream and evenly sprinkle the chopped Oreo pieces on top.
  8. Top with Remaining Ice Cream: Spread the remaining softened ice cream over the cookie and chocolate layer, smoothing the top with a spatula for an even finish.
  9. Freeze Pie: Cover the pie plate tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until the ice cream is completely frozen and set.
  10. Prepare to Serve: Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for a few minutes so it’s easier to slice without cracking.
  11. Garnish and Serve: Optional: garnish the outer edge of the pie with whipped topping using a piping bag and decorator’s tip, drizzle additional chocolate sauce if desired, slice, and serve immediately.

Notes

  • For best results, use cookies and cream ice cream for a consistent flavor theme, but vanilla or chocolate ice cream can be substituted.
  • You can make the crust with any chocolate sandwich cookie, but Oreos give the best authentic flavor.
  • Allow the pie to soften slightly before slicing to avoid cracks and messy edges.
  • Whipped topping garnish is optional but adds a nice creamy contrast and decorative touch.
  • Store any leftovers covered in the freezer for up to one week.
