Ingredients
  

  • 40 crushed Oreo cookies 2 cups for crust, 1 cup for filling, 1 cup for topping: The star ingredient of the crust, Oreos provide a sweet and crunchy base. The additional crushed Oreos in the filling and topping add an extra layer of flavor and texture.
  • 6 tbsp melted salted butter: This binds the crushed Oreos together and adds richness to the crust.
  • 8 oz softened cream cheese: A key ingredient in the filling cream cheese adds a creamy texture and tanginess that balances the richness of the pudding.
  • ¾ cup sifted powdered sugar: This sweetens the cream cheese and helps create a smooth filling.
  • 1½ cups cold milk: Used to prepare the pudding cold milk helps in achieving the right consistency and richness.
  • 3.9 oz instant chocolate pudding mix: Adds chocolate flavor and thickness to the filling. Instant pudding is easy to use and sets quickly.
  • 8 oz thawed whipped topping: This ingredient lightens the filling and adds a delightful creaminess.
  • 24 gummy worms: As a fun topping gummy worms add to the whimsical nature of this dessert and make it visually appealing.

Method
 

  1. Create the Oreos crust: In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups crushed Oreo cookies with 6 tablespoons melted salted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well combined with the butter. Press this mixture into a 9-inch pie plate to form an even layer. Ensure it’s tightly packed and chill the crust in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to set.
  2. Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In another bowl, blend 8 oz softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add ¾ cup sifted powdered sugar, beating until fully combined and creamy.
  3. Make the chocolate pudding: In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together 1½ cups cold milk and 3.9 oz instant chocolate pudding mix until thickened, usually about 2 minutes.
  4. Add crushed Oreos: Stir in 1 cup crushed Oreos to the pudding mixture until well combined, creating a delicious chocolatey filling.
  5. Combine and fold: Gently fold in 8 oz thawed whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated. Then, combine this mixture with the chocolate pudding mixture until smooth and creamy.
  6. Fill the crust: Spread the filling mixture evenly into the prepared Oreo crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  7. Final touch: Sprinkle the remaining 1 cup crushed Oreos on top of the filling to create a 'dirt' effect. Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  8. Serve: Before serving, place 2-3 gummy worms on each slice for decoration. Enjoy your delightful treat!
