“I just adore this pie – it’s so decadent and moreish, and when it stands at room temperature, the filling softens and becomes more fudge-like.” – Tracey Pattison

4 x 133g packets Oreo cookies
150g unsalted butter, melted
360g dark chocolate, chopped
300g mascarpone
3 tsp vanilla bean paste
600ml thickened cream (we used Bulla thickened cream)
1 tbs dark cocoa powder, sifted
Dark chocolate, shaved into large curls, to serve

Method

1.

Split cookies in half, scrape off filling and reserve filling in a small bowl. Place cookies and melted butter in a food processor and whiz until well combined and a fine crumb forms. Press over base (20cm) and side of a 24cm (top measurement) 6-cup capacity, round glass pie dish. Chill for 1 hour until set firm.
2.

Place dark (40%) chocolate and mascarpone in a medium heatproof bowl set over a small saucepan of simmering water over low-medium heat (don’t let base of bowl touch the water). Stir constantly until completely melted and smooth. Remove bowl from pan and stand at room temperature for 5 minutes to cool slightly, then pour into chilled cookie base. Chill for 2 hours or until pie filling has set firm.
3.

Place reserved cookie filling and vanilla in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment and whisk until well combined and smooth. Add cream and cocoa powder and whisk until soft peaks form. Dollop high on top of pie filling.
4.

Sprinkle liberally with chocolate curls.
