What You’ll Need To Make Oreo Cookie Crust
Step-by-Step Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F and set an oven rack in the middle position. In the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade, combine the Oreos and melted butter.
Process until the mixture is finely chopped and evenly moistened.
Transfer the crumbs to a deep-dish 9-inch pie pan.
Using your fingers, form the crust, starting by lining the sides to create a crust about 1/4-inch thick, then press the remaining mixture onto the bottom to form the base. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or glass not only to flatten and even out the surface of the base but also to press against the sides, ensuring they are compact and uniform.
To refine the top edge of your crust, position the side of your thumb or the edge of a measuring cup inside the crust’s side wall, and with the index finger of your other hand, gently press down on the top edge. Gradually rotate the pie pan, maintaining this motion, to ensure a consistently neat and smooth edge around the entire perimeter.
Bake the crust for 5 to 6 minutes, or until slightly crisp, then allow it to cool completely before filling.

Hi Jenn ,
Would this recipe work for a baked cheesecake in a springform pan? If so would it still need to be prebaked ?
I’m afraid the crust will become too hard if it’s also prebaked before adding the batter..
Thank you .
Hi Marlene, yes, this will work for a cheesecake in a springform pan and, yes, I would pre-bake the crust first; if not, the filling will likely make the crust soggy. Hope that helps!
