- 24 whole Oreo cookies
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled slightly
For the Filling:
- 4 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- ¾ cup instant hot chocolate mix about 3 packets
- ¼ cup whole milk

For the Topping:

Instructions
To Make the Crust
- Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray, and use a paper towel to wipe any excess spray away.
- Add the whole Oreo cookies to a food processor and grind into fine crumbs. With the food processor running, drizzle in the melted butter and blend until evenly mixed.24 whole Oreo cookies, 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish, and refrigerate or freeze for at least an hour.
To Make the Filling
- Beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and hot chocolate mix. Mix until combined.4 ounces cream cheese, ½ cup powdered sugar, ¾ cup instant hot chocolate mix
- Add the milk and mix again until well incorporated then fold in the whipped topping.¼ cup whole milk, 8 ounces frozen whipped topping
- Spoon the mixture into the chocolate crust and smooth the top. Don't overfill the crust. The marshmallow topping will displace some of the filling.
To Make the Topping
- In a separate bowl, stir together the whipped topping and marshmallow fluff until smooth. Spread it evenly over the filling.8 ounces frozen whipped topping, 7 ½ ounces marshmallow fluff
- Freeze the pie for 6 hours or overnight until firm.
- Add chocolate shavings or crushed peppermint just before serving.
Notes
- The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 1 slice. Actual calories will vary.
- You can use a store-bought chocolate crust if that's preferred.
- Use super soft cream cheese to make sure the filling is free of lumps.
- You may have a little extra filling leftover. It fills up the crust and can easily overflow once you add the marshmallow topping. Don't use it all if you see that the crust is full.
- This pie can be frozen or refrigerated. Frozen pie will be sturdier. Refrigerated pie will be softer.
- If you freeze the pie, let it site at room temperature for 10-15 before slicing. Use a knife and metal spatula that's been run under hot water to loosen the crust.
- Give the crust plenty of time to set before adding the filling.
