This Easy No-Bake Chocolate Pie is the ultimate chocolate lover’s dream. Made with a buttery Oreo crust and a rich, silky chocolate filling, this dessert delivers deep chocolate flavor without ever turning on the oven. A touch of espresso powder enhances the cocoa notes, while the light, whipped texture keeps each bite smooth and luxurious—not overly heavy.

Ingredients

Oreo Crust

• 32 Oreo cookies
• ½ cup butter, melted

Chocolate Filling

Melt Together:

• 8.1 oz dark chocolate (chopped)
• 5.2 oz heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon espresso powder

Whip Together:

• 1 ½ cups heavy cream, cold
• ¼ cup cocoa powder
• 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
• 3 tablespoons instant pudding mix (chocolate or vanilla)

Whipped Cream Topping

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

Instructions

1. Make the Crust:
   Pulse the Oreo cookies in a food processor until fine crumbs form. If needed, place cookies in a zip-top bag and crush with a cup.
   Mix the crumbs with melted butter until evenly coated.
   Press firmly into the bottom and sides of a greased 9-inch pie pan.
   Freeze for at least 20 minutes to set.
2. Prepare the Chocolate Base:
   In a heatproof bowl, combine dark chocolate, heavy cream, vanilla, salt, and espresso powder.
   Melt gently in the microwave or over a double boiler, stirring until smooth.
   Let cool completely.
3. Whip the Filling:
   In a large bowl, add cold heavy cream, instant pudding mix, cocoa powder (sifted), and sugar.
   Beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
4. Combine:
   Add the cooled chocolate mixture to the whipped mixture.
   Mix briefly with the electric mixer, then gently fold with a spatula until smooth and fully combined.
5. Assemble:
   Pour the chocolate filling into the chilled Oreo crust and smooth the top.
   Refrigerate for at least 5 hours, or overnight, until fully set.
6. Top & Serve:
   Whip the topping ingredients until soft peaks form.
   Spread or pipe over the pie before serving.
   Garnish with chocolate shavings if desired.
