No Bake Oreo COOKIE Crust
This no bake Oreo Pie Crust is very easy to make and delicious!
It is the perfect crust for no bake refrigerated pies and refrigerator desserts as the crust holds up well with chilled fillings.
Make the crust about an hour ahead of time before adding your fillings.
This allows the crust to gel together and avoid excessive crumbling.
If you don’t have a food processor put the cookies in a plastic zip bag and crush with a meat tenderizer until the desired consistency.
This particular crust was made with the seasonal Caramel Apple Oreo Cookies. I thought they were too tart to eat alone or enjoy with milk.
So, I decided to make them in a crust. I was wanting to make a dessert that included caramel.
So I made my Caramel Apple Lasagna. It is a creation I made based on a chocolate lasagna I had seen all over the internet. That was one made by The Center Cut Cook.
This crust can be made from any cookie. It doesn’t have to be an oreo.
These are the INGREDIENTS you will need:
- 48 whole Oreo cookies any flavor
- 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
These are the INSTRUCTIONS for preparation:
- In a medium-sized bowl or a food processor, add the Oreo cookies and blend until the texture of coarse meal or crumbs. Add the melted butter and blend until well combine.
- Place the ground crumb mixture into a rectangular cake pan or 9- or 10-inch deep-dish pie pan and press onto the bottom and up the sides evenly. Try to make the crust about 1/8 inch (1/3 cm) evenly all around.
- 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.
I have used many different flavors for this crust. These include red velvet, mint, cookies and creme, and lemon flavors.
You will find this crust as easy to prepare as a graham cracker crust.
Enjoy!

I do too Ann. A cookie crust or graham cracker is the only one I make anymore. Thanks for commenting. Stay safe and healthy!
need to ask kiddos to make this – good way to engage during isolation – Thanks for joining us in bloggers pit stop – pit stop crew
It is very fun and easy to make this cookie crust. I just have to come up with a filling they can do too. Puddings have been my option so far. LOL. Please stay safe and healthy!!
This would be great filled with a no bake cheesecake filling.

Oh yes it would Dawn! Love all kinds of no bake in this crust. I have used my chocolate and coconut cream fillings too. Thanks for commenting. Enjoy!
This is great Marilyn, I needed a new updated crust for some of my recipes. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you Chas!! Stay safe and healthy.
Anything made with Oreos I am going to love. No matter how old I get that never changes. Pinning!
Have a safe and fun week,
Kippi
Thank you Kippi for the pin!! I also love anything oreo. Or Reeses. LOL. Stay safe and healthy. Have a great day.
The caramel apple lasagna sounds like my husband would love it. I pinned this crust recipe and also the caramel one. 🙂
It is delicious Allyson. The lasagna is “to your taste”. I am one that thinks there can never be too much if it tastes good. So the caramel sauce should be used sparingly. The first time I made the lasagna I used an entire jar of caramel. It was great the first night. After that is was really sweet caramel soup! I learned my lesson. If you try it, let me know!! Enjoy!
I never thought of using the other flavors of Oreos for crusts, genius!! especially since there’s so many new flavors the past few years.
Thanks Pam! I have used the lime, root beer, red velvet, caramel apple as well as the more normal ones. A few of those should ONLY bee used as a crust. LOL. But they are the easiest to make. Thanks for the comment! Have a great week!
We’ve used a very similar recipe a few times; I love trying out different flavors of Oreo for our crusts.
I think the graham cracker and the cookie crusts are my favorites. I have made them with dozens of flavors it seems. Glad you like them too. Enjoy!
Thanks for always sharing such unique recipes.
Thank you Clearissa ! Enjoy your weekend.
