Who doesn’t love OREO cookies? Seriously, raise your hand if you’re a fan! My hand is definitely in the air. OREO cookies have been a beloved snack for generations, and for good reason. Their iconic chocolate wafers and creamy filling are simply irresistible, making them a timeless favorite no matter how many new treats emerge. From a simple snack to a versatile ingredient, OREOs hold a special place in the hearts (and stomachs) of many, myself included.
Over the years, my affection for OREOs has evolved. During my pregnancy, I discovered the surprisingly delicious combination of dipping them in peanut butter – a craving I still indulge from time to time! Nowadays, I love incorporating them into various desserts. They’re fantastic crushed into s’mores, folded into rich brownies, or transformed into elegant truffles. But let’s be honest, there’s a unique pleasure in enjoying them just as they are, twisting them apart or dunking them in milk. The possibilities are endless, showcasing why OREO truly is America’s favorite cookie.
Fortunately for all OREO enthusiasts, May brought an exciting new addition to the OREO family: the NEW 2-pack! This innovation is nothing short of brilliant. Beyond being the most versatile and perfectly delicious cookie, OREOs are now available in a wonderfully portable and precisely portion-sized format. This means you can satisfy your sweet tooth anytime, anywhere, without the temptation of over-indulging in a full sleeve of cookies. It’s mindful snacking made easy and delightful.
Just last week, while traveling, I experienced the sheer convenience of these new OREO 2-packs firsthand. As I packed my purse for the flight, I effortlessly slipped one in. Having just two cookies proved to be the ideal serving size – enough to curb my on-the-go sweet craving without any guilt. It’s perfect for those moments when you need a quick, satisfying treat but want to maintain portion control. This small but mighty change makes OREOs even more accessible and enjoyable for busy lifestyles, ensuring you always have a moment of delicious bliss within reach.
These individual OREO 2-packs are truly a game-changer for countless occasions. They are absolutely ideal for when you’re out and about, craving a treat during a busy day, taking the kids to the park, or even when you’re tasked with bringing snacks for a soccer game. Their compact size makes them effortlessly portable and mess-free. But their utility extends far beyond just on-the-go snacking. They are also incredibly perfect for those cherished late-night moments when you desire a special treat, just for yourself! Come on, moms, you know exactly what I’m talking about – those precious, kid-free indulgences after everyone else is tucked into bed. That quiet moment where a perfectly portioned treat hits just right.
Today, I am thrilled to share one of my all-time favorite late-night indulgences, a dessert that masterfully incorporates these oh-so-delicious OREO cookies: the incredible Copycat Asphalt Pie! This isn’t just any pie; it’s a dreamy mint chocolate chip ice cream pie, built upon a sturdy and flavorful OREO cookie crust. And for the grand finale? It’s generously topped with even more crushed OREO pieces, rich chocolate sauce, luscious caramel drizzle, and a cloud of fluffy whipped cream! Essentially, this dessert is pure perfection in every single bite, offering a delightful blend of textures and flavors that will tantalize your taste buds. It’s an easy-to-make, show-stopping dessert that’s ideal for treating yourself or impressing guests.
Copycat Asphalt Pie: A Delightful OREO Mint Creation

Rate
Ingredients
- 2 sleeves of OREO cookies (about 28 cookies)
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
- 1/2 gallon mint chocolate chip ice cream
- 1 can spray whipped cream
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- 1/2 cup chocolate sauce
- 1/2 cup crushed OREO pieces
Instructions
-
Begin by removing the mint chocolate chip ice cream from the freezer and allowing it to sit on the counter. This helps it soften slightly, making it easier to spread while you prepare the crust.
-
In a food processor, combine the two sleeves of OREO cookies (about 28 cookies total) and the 1/2 cup of melted butter.
-
Process the mixture for approximately 1 minute, until the OREO cookies are finely crushed and thoroughly combined with the butter.
-
Scrape down the sides of the food processor bowl and pulse a few more times to ensure a consistent, even mixture for your pie crust.
-
Lightly spray a standard pie pan with non-stick cooking spray. Press the OREO mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan to form the crust. Aim for an even thickness.
-
Carefully scoop the slightly thawed mint chocolate chip ice cream into the OREO crust. Use a spatula to gently spread and level the ice cream until it forms an even layer.
-
Cover the pie with plastic wrap or foil and place it in the freezer for at least 1 hour, or preferably longer, to allow the ice cream to firm up completely.
-
When ready to serve, cut a slice of the chilled pie. Before serving each piece, adorn it with a generous dollop of spray whipped cream, a drizzle of both caramel and chocolate sauces, and a sprinkle of crushed OREO pieces for extra crunch and flavor.
-
Serve immediately and enjoy this truly magnificent dessert!
