Time 6h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

24 Oreo cookies
5 Tablespoons butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 1/2 cups whole milk
6 large egg yolks
2 Tablespoons cornstarch
6 Tablespoons salted butter (, chopped into pieces)
8 ounces good quality semi-sweet chocolate (, chopped (I like Ghirardelli's))
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 Tablespoons powdered sugar (, or granulated sugar)
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Add the whole Oreo cookies to a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Pour the crumbs into a bowl and stir in melted butter.
  • Press mixture evenly and firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9in pie dish. Bake for 10-12 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  • To a medium sauce pan over medium heat, add the sugar, and milk and whisk well to combine. Bring mixture to a simmer, whisking frequently.
  • Meanwhile, add the egg yolks and cornstarch to a bowl and whisk until smooth.
  • Once the saucepan mixture is simmering, add a few spoonfuls of the hot liquid into the egg yolks and whisk to temper the eggs. Add a few more spoonfuls of the hot liquid into the egg yolks. Then slowly whisk the egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan. Whisk constantly until the mixture begins to thicken and comes to a very gently boil (big bubbles begin to break the surface).
  • Remove pan from the heat and whisk in the butter, chopped chocolate, and vanilla extract. Stir until completely smooth.
  • Pour filling into the cooled cookie crust and smooth into an even layer. Place a piece of plastic wrap gently on top and refrigerate until filling is set, about 4-6 hours or overnight, if desired.
  • Once pudding has set, make the topping by adding the cream to a mixing bowl. Mix with electric mixers on high speed for 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the sugar and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Spread whipped cream over pie and top with chocolate curls or shavings.

Tips:

  • Use good quality chocolate. The better the chocolate, the better the pie will taste. Look for chocolate with a high cacao content (70% or higher) and avoid chocolate that contains vegetable oils.
  • Make sure your ingredients are cold. This will help the pie to set properly and prevent the crust from becoming soggy. If you're using butter, chill it in the freezer for about 30 minutes before using it.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough. Mix the dough just until it comes together, then stop.
  • Blind-bake the crust. This will help to prevent the crust from shrinking and becoming soggy. To blind-bake the crust, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line the pie crust with parchment paper and fill it with pie weights or dried beans. Bake for 15 minutes, then remove the parchment paper and weights and bake for 5 minutes more.
  • Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the filling to set properly and the flavors to meld together.
