Ingredients

For the Crust

• 24 Oreo cookies (about 2 cups), crushed
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Filling

• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup chocolate syrup
• 2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (optional, or substitute with strong brewed coffee)
• 2 cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed
• 1 cup crushed Oreo cookies

For Garnish (Optional)

• Whipped cream
• Chocolate shavings
• Extra Oreo cookies, whole or crushed
• Drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce

Instructions

1. Begin by preparing the crust. In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies with the melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
2. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
4. Add the chocolate syrup and coffee liqueur (or brewed coffee) to the cream cheese mixture and blend until fully combined.
5. Gently fold in the whipped topping until the filling is light and fluffy. Be careful not to overmix to preserve the airy texture.
6. Stir in the crushed Oreo cookies to add texture and extra chocolate flavor.
7. Spread the filling evenly into the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
8. Cover the pie with plastic wrap or foil and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm. For best results, let it freeze overnight.
9. Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes to soften slightly for easier slicing.
10. Garnish with whipped cream, Oreo cookies, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of sauce if desired.

Tips for Success

For a firm crust that holds together well, press the Oreo crumbs firmly with the back of a spoon or the bottom of a measuring cup. If you want a deeper chocolate flavor, use double-stuffed Oreos or add an extra spoonful of cocoa powder to the crust mixture. When mixing the filling, make sure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps. For a grown-up twist, keep the coffee liqueur, but for a family-friendly version, substitute it with strong brewed coffee or leave it out entirely.

Serving Suggestions

Frozen Oreo Mudslide Pie is a showstopper on its own, but toppings can take it to the next level. A swirl of whipped cream with a whole Oreo cookie adds visual appeal, while chocolate shavings or curls make it look elegant. Drizzling caramel sauce, chocolate syrup, or even a coffee glaze brings out the flavors even more. Serve it with a hot cup of coffee for contrast, or alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream for the ultimate indulgence.

Variations

This pie is versatile and can be customized in many ways. For a minty twist, use mint Oreos and a splash of peppermint extract in the filling. Peanut butter lovers can swirl in melted peanut butter
