Make this rich chocolate cream pie with a simple Oreo crust for an easy, make-ahead holiday dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups crushed Oreo cookies (about 25 cookies)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla or white chocolate pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold milk (whole milk recommended)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 tub (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed (or 2 cups homemade whipped cream)
  • Chocolate shavings or holiday sprinkles, for topping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Mix the crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter in a bowl until fully combined. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Chill the crust in the freezer for 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.
  2. Make the chocolate filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and instant vanilla pudding mix. Gradually whisk in the cold milk until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Fold in whipped topping: Gently fold half of the thawed whipped topping into the chocolate mixture until just combined. This lightens the filling.
  4. Assemble the pie: Pour the chocolate filling into the chilled Oreo crust, spreading it evenly.
  5. Chill: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until the filling is firm.
  6. Top and serve: Before serving, spread the remaining half of the whipped topping evenly over the set filling. Decorate the top with chocolate shavings or holiday sprinkles. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

  • You can make this pie one day ahead of time. Keep it covered in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve it.
  • For a homemade whipped topping, beat 1 cup of heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
  • If you do not have Oreos, you can substitute with graham cracker crumbs and reduce the melted butter to 4 tablespoons.
