Golden Oreo Crust
A quick and easy two ingredient recipe for the perfect golden Oreo pie crust. This crust recipe is suitable for pies, tarts or cheesecakes and will make enough for an 8" or 9" crust.
Equipment
- large mixing bowl
- spatula
- 8" or 9" springform cake pan or pie dish
Ingredients
- 28 Golden Oreos crushed or ground to fine crumb
- 5 tablespoon unsalted butter melted
Instructions
- Place the finely ground golden Oreos in a large mixing bowl and pour the melted butter in. Stir with a spatula until well mixed into a lightly moist crumb.28 Golden Oreos, 5 tablespoon unsalted butter
- Pour the mixture into your prepared dish (either a lined springform pan, pie plate or tart shell) and press firmly into the base and up the sides (see note).
- Once firmly pressed, this Golden Oreo crust can be used for baked or no bake cheesecakes or pies as directed in your filling recipe. I recommend chilling the crust while you prepare the filling. After filled (and baked if necessary), it is best to chill for at least 2 hours (or longer if needed for the filling) before serving, to ensure that the crust is set well for slicing.
Notes
The thickness of the base and sides will be dependent on your preferences and the size of pan being used. For a 9" springform pan, this recipe should provide enough for to create a base and to press the crumb about 1" up the sides.
