Description
A rich dessert featuring a buttery cookie crust, creamy chocolate filling, and optional toppings, perfect for chocolate lovers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 24 chocolate sandwich cookies (Oreos, filling included)
- 5 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Whipped cream or Cool Whip (optional)
- Chocolate shavings or cocoa powder (optional)
- Mini marshmallows or chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush the chocolate cookies into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Press firmly into a pie dish and bake for 10 minutes; let cool completely.
- For the filling, heat heavy cream until steaming (not boiling). Pour over chocolate chips and let sit for 2 minutes, then whisk until smooth.
- In another bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until creamy. Slowly fold the chocolate mixture into the cream cheese until silky.
- Pour the creamy chocolate filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top. Chill for at least 240 minutes or until fully set.
- Top with whipped cream, chocolate curls, or any optional toppings. Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
Crust must cool fully before filling. Use room-temperature cream cheese for smooth texture. Chill overnight for cleaner slices. For extra depth, add a pinch of espresso powder to the chocolate mixture.
