This pie is a cookies and cream lover's dream! While there are many variations out there, this one is made with your favorite sandwich cookie made into a crust, layered with a dark chocolate pudding that mimics the chocolate cookie, and topped with whipped cream. We also added more crushed cookies on top!

Makes 8 servings

For the Chocolate Crust:

1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs, more for topping

1/4 cup butter, melted

For the Dark Chocolate Pudding:

1/4 cup cornstarch

1/3 cup sugar

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/8 teaspoon salt

1 cup semi-sweet chocolate, chopped

1 1/2 cups fresh milk

1 Make chocolate crust: Mix ingredients together in a bowl, and press into an 8-inch pie pan. Chill until ready to use.

2 Make Dark Chocolate Pudding: In a saucepan, mix all ingredients. Place over medium heat and cook, whisking, until mixture comes to a boil. Lower heat to simmer and simmer only until mixture thickens. Remove from heat and pour onto the chilled crust. Chill until completely cold.

3 When ready to serve, whip whipped cream until soft peaks. Dollop onto chilled pudding and spread near the edges. Sprinkle whipped cream with additional chocolate crumbs. Serve cold.
