Oreo Cookie Crust

You know that any pie recipe that calls for an Oreo crust is going to be good.  You can make one almost as cheaply as you can buy one, plus a homemade crust is so much better (and prettier!) than one bought from a store.  And don't forget the added bonus of getting to eat an Oreo or two while making it. ♥

Oreo Cookie Crust

18 Oreo cookies, finely crushed
3 tbsp. butter, melted

Finely crush Oreos (I use my food processor), and mix with melted butter. Press crumb mixture onto bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate until ready to fill.

 Baking Tip for Easily Removing a Piece of Crumb-Crust Pie:  Just before serving, rub the outside of the filled pie plate with a warm, damp towel.  This softens the butter in the crust, making it less likely to stick to the pie plate.  To prepare the towel, rinse it in very hot water, then wring it well.
