Learn how to make this super simple Oreo pie crust in both baked and no bake versions.  Use this homemade crust for cheesecake, pies, or other desserts.  It only takes 2 ingredients to make your own Oreo crust!

Ingredients

• 24 Oreo cookies, including cream filling (272g)
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted (60g)

Procedure

1. Crush the cookies in a food processor until they turn into fine crumbs.  Do not remove the cream filling from the Oreos.
2. Pour the crumbs into a bowl and thoroughly mix in the melted butter.  If you squeeze a fistful of the mixture together, it should hold its shape without falling apart.  If the mixture is too dry and crumbly, add more melted butter.
3. Press the crumbs into a 9-inch pie plate, using a flat-bottomed object like a measuring cup, and a spoon.  Make sure the crumbs are firmly packed in an even thickness around the base and sides.
4. No Bake Crust: Chill the crust for 20-30 minutes in the fridge or 1 hour in the freezer before using.
5. Baked Crust: Bake the crust at 350 F for 8-10 minutes, until crisp; then let it cool on a wire rack.

Cook’s Notes

• Make sure the Oreos are evenly crushed without chunks or lumps.
• Squeeze a handful of the mixture to see if it holds together in a clump; that means that there’s enough butter.
• Pack the crust tightly, or it will fall apart later.
• Want a baked crust?  Bake it at 350 F for 8 to 10 minutes, until firm to the touch.
