The Perfect Oreo Cookie Crust Recipe 435

EASY OREO COOKIE CRUST RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the Oreos to a food processor or blender and grind into fine crumbs. You do not need to remove the filling from the Oreos.
• 2. Add the Oreo crumbs to a bowl and combined with the melted butter.
• 3. Pour the mixture into your pie pan or springform pan (I like to grease mine to ensure no sticking) and press into an even layer on the bottom and up the sides.
• 4. For a no bake crust (pie or cheesecake), you can refrigerate it for 30 minutes before adding your filling. If you are going to bake it, bake at 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes.

THE PERFECT OREO COOKIE CRUST RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• 1. Finely crush your cookies. I like to use a food processor for this step, but you can also place the cookies in a plastic bag and roll the sealed bag with a rolling pin. If you're using a rolling pin, seal the bag but leave about an inch open for air to escape. You'll have to put some muscle in it to get a fine crush. The crust sticks together best when the cookies are crushed finely. 2. NOTE: You do NOT need to remove the filling from the Oreo. 3. Stir the cookie crumbs and melted butter together with a fork. Press crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie plate. Chill until ready to fill. 4. For a no-bake pie: chill the crust about 30 minutes before filling, then fill/chill as directed in the recipe. 5. For a crunchier no-bake filling pie: bake the crust for 8 minutes at 350°F then cool completely before filling. 6. For a filled baked pie: press the crust into the pie plate and then bake about 8 minutes at 350°F. Fill with filling and bake as directed in the recipe. 7. This crust can also be pressed into a 9x9 inch pan for pie bars or used as a cheesecake crust in a 9-10" springform pan.

OREO COOKIE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F.
• Place the Oreo cookies and cinnamon in a food processor (see page xviii) and pulse them together until they are ground down into fine crumbs. In a medium bowl, mix together the crumbs and melted butter, using a fork to combine. Add and incorporate the milk, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stopping when the crumbs are moist enough to mold into a pie shell (this may take only 1 1/2 tablespoons of milk to accomplish).
• Spread the Oreo crust mixture evenly across the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate so that it covers the entire dish. There should be no gaps in the crust. Bake for 5 minutes. Cool the pie shell for 30 minutes before adding your desired pie filling.
