Want to make a bigger batch like for a 9×13 pan? Just double this recipe. Easy.
Directions
| Step 1 | |
 In a medium-sized bowl or a food processor, add the Oreo cookies and blend until the texture of coarse meal or crumbs. You can also put the cookie or cookie pieces into a large zip lock bag and use a rolling pin to crush. | |
| Step 2 | |
 Add the melted butter to the crushed cookies and blend until well combine. | |
| Step 3 | |
 Place the ground crumb mixture into a pie pan and press onto the bottom and up the sides evenly. Try to make the crust about 1/8 inch evenly on bottom and sides. I use the back of a measuring cup to press the the Oreo mixture onto the pan. | |
| Step 4 | |
 Refrigerate the crust for at least an hour before you add the filling of your choice. This will help prevent crumbling when you want to serve it. | |
