Ingredients
- one 14.3 oz package of oreos (36 oreos)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
Do I blend the cookies AND the cream filling?
Yes! Be sure to blend the cookie and the cream filling. There’s no need to remove the cream filling. The cream filling adds flavor and helps to bind the crust together, along with the butter.
How To Make Oreo Cookie Crust
- In a food processor or blender, pulse the oreos (the cookie portion and the cream filling) into fine crumbs.
- In a mixing bowl, use a spatula to combine the crumbs with the melted butter until well combined.
- Transfer the crumbs to a 9 inch pan. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or similar to pack the crumbs evenly and tightly into the pan.
What Size Package of Oreos
To make one 9 inch oreo pie crust use a 14.3 oz package of oreos, this is equal to 36 oreos. This is the standard package, not the large or family size package.
Do I Bake Oreo Pie Crust?
If you are making a no bake pie, like chocolate pudding pie, butterfinger pie or peanut butter pie, you don’t bake the oreo cookie crust. Once the crust is packed into the pie pan, place the crust in the fridge to chill while you assemble the pie filling.
If you are making cheesecake, like oreo cheesecake, espresso cheesecake or chocolate chocolate, you will pre-bake the oreo cheesecake crust for about 10 minutes before adding the cheesecake filling and baking again.
Oreo Crust Tips
- Use a blender or food processor to ensure that you get fine crumbs.
- Blend the entire cookie – the cookie and the cream! No need to separate them.
- Press and pack the oreo crust into the pan really well. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or drinking glass to tamp the crust down.
