Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 3/4 cups Oreo cookie crumbs (about 28 cookies)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 package (8 ounces) semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for whipped cream)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (for whipped cream)
  • Chocolate shavings, for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix the Oreo cookie crumbs and melted butter until fully combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Place the crust in the freezer while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the cream cheese layer: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, 1 cup of powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Set this aside.
  3. Melt the chocolate: Place the chocolate chips and milk in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted. Let the mixture cool slightly for about 5 minutes.
  4. Combine the mousse base: Gently fold the slightly cooled melted chocolate mixture into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Prepare the whipped topping: In a separate, clean bowl, beat the cold heavy whipping cream with 1/4 cup of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  6. Fold the mousse: Gently fold about one-third of the whipped cream into the chocolate mixture to lighten it. Then, fold in the remaining whipped cream until no white streaks remain, creating a fluffy chocolate mousse filling.
  7. Assemble the pie: Pour the chocolate mousse filling into the chilled Oreo crust, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
  8. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, until the mousse is firm.
  9. Serve: Before serving, top the pie with additional whipped cream (if desired) and chocolate shavings. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • For a richer chocolate flavor, substitute half of the semi-sweet chocolate chips with bittersweet chocolate chips.
  • If you do not have Oreo cookies, you can use graham cracker crumbs mixed with 1/4 cup of sugar and 6 tablespoons of melted butter for the crust.
  • Make sure your heavy whipping cream is very cold for the best results when whipping the topping.
