Decadent Chocolate Cream Pie: Indulgence on a Plate

Make the Crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter in a bowl. Press the mixture into a 9-inch pie dish. Bake for 10 minutes, then let cool.

Prepare the Filling: In a saucepan, combine milk, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Heat over medium until simmering. In a separate bowl, whisk together egg yolks and cornstarch.

Gradually whisk in some hot milk to temper the yolks, then return the mixture to the saucepan. Cook, whisking constantly, until thickened.

Add Chocolate: Remove from heat and stir in chopped chocolate, butter, and vanilla until smooth. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set.

Whip the Cream: In a bowl, beat heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until soft peaks form. Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the chilled pie.

Serve: Garnish with chocolate shavings if desired. Slice and enjoy your indulgent chocolate cream pie!

This decadent dessert is sure to satisfy any chocolate lover!
