Ingredients

For the crust

Oreo cookies a box or as required

Unsalted butter, melted 6 tbsp

For Ganache filling

Milk chocolate (coarsely chopped) 2 cups

Heavy cream 1 cup

Butter (cut into small pieces) 1/4 cup

Method

  • To make the crust, pulse Oreo cookies, with filling, in a food processor until finely ground.
  • Transfer crumbs to a medium bowl, add melted butter, and mix until combined and moistened.
  • Press the mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch tart pan or mini pans.
  • Place it in the fridge for 30 minutes to firm up before adding the filling. Or, for a very crunchy crust, you can bake it in a 350F preheated oven for about 8 minutes until fragrant and firm, and then let it cool completely on a wire rack.
  • To make the filling, in a medium heatproof bowl, place chopped chocolate and set aside.
  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring the heavy cream and butter to a low boil.
  • Remove from the heat and pour mixture over the chocolate and let stand for 1 minute.
  • Using a rubber spatula, stir the mixture until melted and smooth.
  • Pour mixture over Oreo crust and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until set but preferably more.
  • Before serving, if the crust is tough it’s probably too cold, so just leave at room temperature for a short while.
  • You can keep the tart, covered well for up to 4 days in the fridge.
