Ingredients Breakdown

For the Oreo Pie Crust:

• 26 Oreos: The classic cookie, finely ground, forms the base of this dessert. The combination of chocolate cookie and creamy filling gives the crust both flavor and structure.

• 5 tablespoons butter, melted: Helps bind the crushed Oreos together and adds a rich, buttery flavor.

• Pinch of salt: Balances out the sweetness of the cookies and ice cream.

For the Filling:

• 1 pint ice cream, slightly melted: Choose your favorite flavor. Classic vanilla, chocolate chip cookie dough, mint chocolate chip, strawberry, or even a seasonal favorite like pumpkin or peppermint swirl all work beautifully. Slightly melting the ice cream helps it spread evenly into the crust.
