Ingredients

  • 2 1/4 cup Oreo cookie crumbs
  • 1/3 cup butter melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 cup half and half (or heavy whipping cream)
  • 1 8 oz block plain cream cheese, softened
  • 2 3.3 oz boxes instant white chocolate pudding mix
  • 15 Oreo cookies roughly chopped
  • 4 1.5 oz cookies and cream candy bars, chopped
  • 1 8 oz container whipped topping, thawed (Cool Whip) OR 2 cups sweetened fresh whipped cream

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a medium size mixing bowl mix together the cookie crumbs, melted butter and sugar. Press mixture firmly onto the bottom and sides of a 10-inch pie dish.
  • Bake for 20 minutes or until set. Cool completely.
  • In a large bowl whip together the half and half and cream cheese with both boxes of pudding mix. Beat for 2-3 minutes until smooth and thickened.
  • By hand fold the chopped oreos and candy bar into the pudding and cream cheese mixture Reserve 2 Tbsp of each for garnishing.
  • Spread filling evenly into the cooled crust. Top with whipped cream and garnish with reserved chopped cookies and candy bar pieces.
  • Chill Cookies and Cream Pie for 4 hours or overnight before cutting.

Notes

  • Use Any Brand of Cookies for the Crust - It's sometimes more cost effective to use a private label brand of chocolate sandwich cookies. I've made this pie both ways using Oreos and store brand chocolate sandwich cookies. Either way, it's delicious.
  • Heavy Cream - You could use whole milk or heavy whipping cream in place of half and half for the pie filling. Half and half or heavy whipping cream will lend the most rich and creamy texture which is why it's used in the Oreo dessert.
  • Pudding Substitution - If you're unable to find white chocolate cheesecake pudding mix cheesecake pudding mix would be a tasty substitute.
