How to Make Oreo Pie
Even though this pie looks incredibly impressive, this easy oreo pie recipe is actually very easy to make when you follow my step-by-step guide below. Get the full recipe with ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.
Crust
- Prep oreos. In a food processor or blender, pulse the oreos (the cookie portion and the cream filling) into fine crumbs.
- Mix oreos and butter. In a mixing bowl, use a spatula to combine the crumbs with the melted butter until well combined.
- Transfer crumbs to pie pan. Transfer the crumbs to a 9 or 10 inch pan. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or drinking glass to pack / tamp the crumbs evenly and tightly into and up the sides of the pan. Place in the fridge until ready to use.
Pie Filling
- Mix base of filling. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until well blended. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beat again.
- Cut and mix in oreos. Chop 20 oreos. Mix in the chopped oreos and cool whip, stir with a spatula until mixed. Spread this mixture on the crust. Loosely cover and refrigerate for 6 hours. Alternatively, you can cover and store in the freezer for a frozen pie.
Whipped Cream
- Chill tools. Before serving, place a metal or glass mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 15 minutes.
- Mix base of whipped cream. Remove the bowl from the freezer. Add the cream cheese and powdered sugar, beat with an electric mixer for 1 minute or until smooth and creamy.
- Mix in remaining ingredients. Add in the heavy whipping cream and vanilla extract, beat with an electric mixer for 4-5 minutes on high speed, or until stiff peaks form / it’s scoop-able with a spoon and holds its shape.
- Top the pie. Pipe the whipped cream on top of the pie. Top with oreos or crushed oreos. Store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
Total Time Required
This easy pie recipe starts with the crunchy oreo crust, then the creamy pie filling and finally the topping. Here’s the breakdown of how long each step takes:
- Making the oreo cookie crust: 5 minutes
- Making the filling: 5 minutes
- Making the topping & topping the pie with oreos: 10 minutes
- Chill time: At least 1-2 hours to chill in the fridge or freezer
No Bake Oreo Pie Storage
This is the perfect dessert to make ahead of time, because it can be kept in the refrigerator or freezer. If kept in the refrigerator, the pie is softer and the filling is lighter when served. If kept in the freezer (my preference), be sure to cover the pie with a layer of plastic wrap before freezing. This keeps well in the freezer for up to 3 months. When ready to enjoy, thaw the wrapped pie in the refrigerator overnight.
Tips for the Best Oreo Pie
- Use the whole oreo: When making the crust, use the entire oreo (the cream and the cookies).
- Oreo topping: Use several oreos cut in half to decorate the outside of the top of the pie, and then add more chopped oreos to the center.
- Clean slices: Wipe your knife clean with a damp cloth between each cut for clean pie slices.

WHIPPED CREAM
- Before serving, Place a metal or glass mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 15 minutes. Remove the bowl from the freezer.

Chocolate Ganache (optional – original recipe)
- Place chocolate chips in a medium heat-proof bowl. In a small pot over low heat, heat the heavy cream until just before boiling. Pour the heavy cream over the chocolate chips. Allow the mixture to stand for 1-2 minutes. Use a spatula to stir the mixture until smooth. Allow the ganache to come to room temperature before adding it to the pie. Before the chocolate hardens, add oreos to the top. Start by adding the halved oreos around the edges, placing them as close or as far apart as you want. Then add chopped oreos to the center of the pie. Cover the pie with tinfoil and return to the freezer or fridge for 1-2 hours. Before serving, remove the pie from the freezer and let it sit for a few minutes to make cutting it easier. Cover and freeze or refrigerate any leftovers.
This pie looks and sounds amazing! I am definitely going to have to try this :)
It’s funny, I absolutely adore Oreos in desserts just not as a biscuit to eat alone.
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe! I made this pie for a work potluck, and won runner-up! :) Although it takes some time to put each layer together, it is very easy and it looks so impressive for the little amount of effort involved. My bf thought it was delicious and texted: “YUMMMMMMMMMMM”. Nuff said! ;)
Hahaha!! Love what the boyfriend said!
Could I make this in a spring form pan? I always feel like those are easier to display/serve. Has anyone ever done that?
Oh yes! You definitely could!
Sorry but NO good pie could possible have Cool whip as an ingredient. NASTY!
If you are opposed to cool whip you could substitute your own homemade whipped cream.
I don’t know why people are complaining about the Cool Whip, I just made the filling and it’s delicious!
can we use something else instead of cool whip? i dont have this product where i Live…. thanks
Hi Katrina! You can make homemade whipped cream and use that!
hi! this pie looks delicious and i’m thinking about making this for my sisters birthday, i’m just wondering how many people does it serve?
Hi Kai! at least 8!
Ey just want to know must it be in the freezer or can I put it in fridge as well
You could put it in the fridge, it will be more mousse like then frozen.
I have a premade oreo crust I need to use, should I cut the recipe in half since it calls for a 10 inch pan?
Your premade oreo crust should work great in this recipe – no need to cut the recipe in half.
Hi! Making this for Christmas!! What kind of chocolate chips – semi sweet or milk chocolate?
I use semi-sweet usually!
I learned to bake with exact measurements-
What is a standard container of cool whip??
8 oz!
I made this for my boyfriend’s birthday. It was delicious and very easy to make. I will be making it again.
Sounds like it was a happy birthday!!
Made this with my own whipped cream but it was just way too sweet. Even my kids got sick after one piece. But it was delicious. We did not add all the oreo to the top either, that would be over kill.
Hi!
Thank you for the recipe, looks amazing, planning to make it tomorrow.
Can I ask how many Oreos does a package containe? We have a few versions of Oreo packages and I don’t know how many Oreos do I exactly need to make the pie.
And here where I live there is no such thing is Cool Whip, can I use liquid cream beated to foam instead?
Thanks!
This looks awesome! I’m bringing a dessert for our July 4th get together. If I double this do you think I could make it in a 9×13 pan?
Hi Sarah! I’m not sure.. but I think it could work!
Could I use pre-made hot fudge topping instead of the chocolate ganache? I don’t have a microwave and I tend to seize my chocolate every time I try a double boiler.
Hi Angie! The hot fudge won’t be the same consistency as the chocolate ganache, but I bet it will taste just as good! So I say, go for it!
Why powered sugar over pure cane sugar? I always always get these two sugars confused and it literally makes me panic over the outcome of a recipe lol
Great question! Powdered sugar won’t leave a grain-y texture like granulated sugar can! You want the cream cheese layer to be SMOOTH!
Overall the pie turned out pretty good. It does take a lot of time to make but it’s worth. The only thing that I had a problem with was the cream cheese, it seemed when I tried it had a strong cream cheese taste. Did u do something wrong? I used what the recipe said.
Hmmm! There’s enough oreos and sugar in the recipe where it shouldn’t taste overly cream cheese-y.
Could I make this pie ahead of time and freeze it to serve 2 days later or would it not be as good?
As long as you wrap it well with plastic wrap, I think it will be fine!
This was a lot of fun to make! Very easy and the outcome is impressive! Very rich! Definitely need lots of milk! Loved it 😋
We made this for Pi Day and it was a hit!!
Gosh, I wish I had a piece!!
Do you take the cream out of the oreos for the crust?
Nope!
I can’t wait to try this out! How long would you leave the crust in the freezer before adding the cream layer?
I just popped the crust in the freezer while I was preparing the next layer, so not super long!
For the chocolate chips, does it matter what kind they are? What kind did you use or find taste better?
Hi Katherin! I almost always use semi-sweet!
THIS WAS AN AMAZING PIE! It was very simple to make and had an awesome taste. I made it for Pi Day. Thanks so much for the recipe. I just had a question. If you want to serve it 3 days after you make it, do you put it in the freezer with tinfoil? Is that okay? Thanks!
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed! & yes, putting it in the freezer is fine!
I only have a 9″ pie pan/plate, will that be big enough to hold everything?
Yes!
I made this pie! (delicious) When you mix whip topping and cream cheese together the filling sets up perfectly for slicing without freezing. Just in case you don’t have freezer room. (happens alot in my house)
Hi! What is a substitute for heavy whipping cream for the ganache??
My husband loved this pie. Myself no, but then I do not like chocolate at all. But everyone else loved it
I made this pie for the November 2021 baking challenge. It was a huge hit for our Thanksgiving dessert! The recipe was easy to put together and made for a impressive presentation!
Would this fit in an 8″ premade oreo crust?
It will probably overflow an 8 inch crust – so you might have extra filling!
I’m only seeing 3.1 oz packages of Oreos at my store. Does that really mean I have to buy 5 packages of Oreos?
Hi Christina! Where do you live that you’re only seeing 3.1 oz packages of Oreos? Those must be the mini oreos.
This was a hit for my son’s birthday. He’s not a big cake fan but loves oreos. This was perfect for him and everyone else loved it! I will definitely be making it again. One thing I did switch up was the ganache. I did a 1/3 cup chocolate chips and 1/3 heavy cream. And drizzled it all over the top and I still had plenty left over.
