Ingredients

Oreo Crust

  • 24 regular oreos
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Chocolate Pudding

  • ½ cup dark brown sugar packed
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • ¼ cup cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 pint heavy cream
  • ¾ cups skim milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter room temperature
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Garnishes

  • chocolate syrup
  • whipped cream
  • maraschino cherries

Instructions

Oreo Crust

  • Grease a 9 inch round pie dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
  • Place oreos, butter, vanilla, and salt into a food processor.
  • Process until the mixture resembles a fine crumb.
  • Pour into the prepared pie dish.
  • Use the bottom of a glass to compact the crust firmly into the bottom of the dish and halfway up the sides.
  • Chill the crust in the fridge for 30 minutes before filling.

Chocolate Pudding Pie

  • Place sugar, cocoa powder, cornstarch, and salt into a medium sized saucepan.
  • Whisk until no lumps remain.
  • Whisk in heavy cream and milk.
  • Place over medium heat and bring to a light boil (it’ll look like slow, thick bubbles), whisking occasionally.
  • Once bubbling, whisk constantly (it’ll get thick quick) and cook for 1 minute, the mixture should be thick enough to coat the back of a metal spoon.
  • Remove from heat, and whisk in butter and vanilla.
  • Let cool for 5 minutes, then re-whisk (a film will form) and pour into crust.
  • Cover with plastic (the plastic will stick to the top of the pudding - that's good, this keeps a film from forming) and chill until the pudding has set, at least 30 minutes to an hour.
  • Slice and serve with optional garnishes.
