5. (Optional but recommended) Bake the crust in a preheated 350°F (180°C) oven for 5-6 minutes for a crisper texture. Let cool completely before adding the filling.

Making the Filling

2. In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the heavy cream and butter to a low boil.
3. Remove from heat and pour the hot mixture over the chopped chocolate.
4. Let sit for 1 minute, then stir with a rubber spatula until smooth and fully melted.
5. If needed, microwave the mixture in short bursts until completely melted.
6. Pour the ganache into the chilled Oreo crust and spread evenly.
7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until fully set.

Storage

Tips & Serving Suggestions
