Looking for an oreo pie crust recipe

Anonymous
I was surprised to discover that oreo has discontinued its pre-baked pie crust. The last time I made one from scratch, it was very crumbly so not enough butter. Looking online, it seems there is no consistent recipe for a 9 inch pie shell, some say 18 cookies and 5 tablespoons of butter, some say 24 cookies and 4 tablespoons, some say use double stuff oreos, etc etc. If anyone has a tried and true one can you please share the link/recipe. TIA.

This is what I would do OP. I don’t think the premade Oreo crusts were whole cookies, rather just the chocolate cookie part. I don’t think blending the whole cookie would yield good results

Alas the Nabisco chocolate wafers have been discontinued.

You just pulverize a bunch of Oreos into crumbs and then wet it with melted butter til you can press it in a pie pan. Not really a recipe as much as a method.

I used this recipe for the crust at thanksgiving (in a vacation rental so I had to crush the Oreos by hand).

For the filling I used this recipe since it uses whipping cream instead of cool whip (I grew up on a dairy farm and no Cool
Whip allowed)

Dint akwats take the recipe at face value. Check out some of the comments - which may say “recipe says 18 cookies but itveirked better with 24” or “I tried with double stuff and it turned out great”.

This uses an Oreo crust (and the pie is delicious):

Thank you everyone. I did this last night for a peanut butter pie and used the Sally's Baking addiction version with 22 cookies and 5 TB butter. I baked for 12 minutes as I saw baking times from 5-15 minutes looking at a bunch of recipies (after 10 minutes it still seemed pretty soft).

OP here...12 minutes was way too long, the crust hardened into a rock. Next time will cook for 7=8 minutes.
