Essential Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to make this delicious dish:

  • Oreo Cookies: Choose classic Oreos for the best flavor in the crust; they’re perfectly crunchy and chocolatey.
  • Unsalted Butter: Melted butter binds the crust together nicely; always use unsalted for better control over saltiness.
  • Cream Cheese: Make sure it’s softened for easy blending; it adds richness to the filling.
  • Powdered Sugar: This sweetener gives the filling its delightful sweetness; sift it for a smoother texture.
  • Cool Whip or Heavy Cream: Use Cool Whip for convenience or whip heavy cream until soft peaks form for a fresher taste.
  • Fresh Strawberries and Blueberries: Choose ripe berries for best flavor; they’ll add a fresh burst of color and taste on top.

Recipe preparation for Oreo Cookie Crust Flag Pie

How to Make Oreo Cookie Crust Flag Pie

Start by making the crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, crush Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin until they resemble sand.

Next up is mixing in butter: Pour melted butter over the cookie crumbs and stir until fully combined. The mixture should hold together when pressed.

Now shape your crust: Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for about 10 minutes until set and fragrant. Let it cool completely before adding filling.

Prepare the filling: In another mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy using an electric mixer. Gradually add powdered sugar while continuing to mix until well combined.

Fold in Cool Whip (or whipped cream): Gently fold in Cool Whip until fully incorporated into the cream cheese mixture. This keeps it light and airy—just how we like it!

Assemble your pie: Pour the creamy filling into your cooled Oreo crust. Smooth out the top with a spatula before decorating with fresh strawberries and blueberries in flag pattern style.

Chill before serving: Place your assembled pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to set properly. This helps all those delicious flavors meld beautifully together!

Serve and enjoy: Slice through that beautiful pie, serve it up on plates, and watch as everyone dives in eagerly! Enjoy every bite of this patriotic treat!
