Tomorrow is Pie (Pi) Day!! Math nerds everywhere love 3-14 but we dessert-loving humans use this day as an excuse to celebrate with actual pie.

After my first bite of this Oreo Chocolate Mousse Pie, I knew I could crush the entire pie by myself. I didn’t even need a plate, I was just going straight in with a fork. This would be trouble, so I cut one slice for myself and one for my fiancé and put them in the fridge, and I gave away the other half of the pie.

When I picked him up from the airport, we got home at 11pm and the first thing I did was grab the pie out of the fridge because I had been telling him how amazing it was the entire week. Together we crushed the first slice then and there.

I asked him how he would describe this no-bake Oreo pie and he said, “Oreo-tastic”. I shouldn’t be surprised because anytime I’m making an Oreo dessert, he always wants in on the action as soon as my photoshoot is over.

Several months ago I made a Nutter Butter Mousse Pie after being so completely obsessed with my No-Bake Brookie Icebox Cake. I felt like I needed a peanut butter version. I have no idea why it took me so long to come up with this Oreo version, but I can promise you there are more in the future.

Don’t be intimidated with the long list of ingredients or instructions. Most of them are repetitive for the different layers.

The bottom layer is an easy chocolate mousse made with melted dark chocolate, a touch of cream cheese and whipped cream. I always suggest using high quality chocolate for the best results. I prefer a dark chocolate baking bar such as Ghirardelli. You can find them in the baking aisle along side of the chocolate chips.

I also added some gelatin to help with the texture. Just sprinkle the powdered gelatin over cold water and wait a couple of minutes for it to solidify. Then microwave it for a few second until it turns back to a liquid and stir it into the melted chocolate.

The top layer is an Oreo mousse, which is just stabilized whipped cream and crushed Oreos. The Oreos get nice and soft, almost cake-like in texture. Then I finished it off with more Oreos, hot fudge and some more whipped cream for garnish.

You guys, I can’t even tell you how amazing this no-bake pie is. It’s the perfect balance of chocolate without being overwhelming and dense. It’ extremely light in texture, so you’re not left with a pit in your stomach after scarfing down a whole slice. Not that I would know anything about that.

    Hello, the gelatin clumped up in the Oreo mousse, even though it was a liquid when I had poured it into the whipped cream/mousse. I continued to beat the whipping cream after pouring gelatin in. Do you know why it formed into a solid and thus was clumpy? 🙁 Also, the gelatin didn’t turn into a solid in the chocolate mousse part. Other than that, the pie was excellent! Looking forward to your response. Thanks!

      It might have been too hot when you poured it into the Oreo mousse? So when it hit the cold ingredients it seized up. With the chocolate mousse, you are mixing the gelatin into an already warm ingredient.

    Hi there. Realistically, how many servings does this pie make? It seems pretty rich; therefore, could it serve 10 nice sized pieces? Thx.

    I made this for my family’s dessert tonight, and it was delicious! I really love your no-bake desserts. I find that all of them are just perfectly sweet. So many icebox cakes and no-bake desserts tend to be overly sweet, but this was just perfect. I’m always looking for lots of no-bake desserts where I live, since we live in a hot, dry climate half of the year. Thanks for another great recipe!

      You sure can! Thaw in the fridge overnight. If possible, add the topping prior to serving for the best results.

    Hey! This was delicious! I used one family sized pack of Oreos and instead of sprinkling Oreos on top I made a ganache. Thanks for the recipe.

  5. Tehreem Khan

    Love this! Thinking of making this for a friend’s birthday. Do you think a mirror glaze would be good on this instead of the whipped cream and Oreos? I’ve never really tasted a mirror glaze before so don’t know how it goes with stuff :p

      Hi Tehreem, I’ve never worked with a mirror glaze before. This would be stable enough for you to pour a glaze over, but I would suggest to free for 30-60 minutes before hand for added stability.

    Instruction is kind of confusing and please clarify “edges”. You grease “edges” ad then wipe gently with paper towel?

    For the crust: Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lightly greasing the edges of the pan with cooking spray, and then wiping gently with a paper towel.

    1. Julianne - Beyond Frosting
      Beyond Frosting

      Hi Hazel, by grease the edges, I mean the sides of the springform pan. You want to lightly coat the sides of the pan, but the reason for wiping it with a paper towel is so that there is no areas of concentrated grease.

  7. Teresa

    Ingredients don’t match the directions?? 2 packages of Oreos for the crust, but only grinding 1 package in the directions. And, 12 Oreos for mousse layer needed, and directions say 10 cookies?

    1. Julianne - Beyond Frosting
      Beyond Frosting

      Hi Teresa, sorry for the confusion. I list 2 packages because you need 1 full package for the crust and a second package to pull from for the filling. I’ve added the word “divided” for future clarification. I would hate for someone to get home and realize they don’t have enough Oreos! I’ve corrected the ingredients to list 10 Oreos, although 10, or 12 or even more would be fine if you want a chunkier filling. I hope you enjoy!
