Ingredients

  • 20 Oreo cookies (about 1½ cups crushed)
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted
  • 12 oz semi-sweet or dark chocolate (around 54.5% cacao), chopped
  • 12 oz heavy cream

Instructions

    • Crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or a sealed bag with a rolling pin.

  1. Make the Ganache

    • Pour over chopped chocolate in a bowl and let sit for a few minutes.
    • Whisk until smooth.
  2. Assemble
    • Pour ganache over the Oreo crust, spreading evenly.

  3. Serve
    • Remove from the pan and top with whipped cream before serving.

Notes
