Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush 24 Oreos into fine crumbs. Melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter and combine it with the Oreo crumbs until the mixture resembles wet sand. Firmly press this mixture into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes or chill for a no-bake option until firm.
  2. Softening 8 ounces of cream cheese in a mixing bowl. Beat it with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually pour in 1.5 cups of melted white chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of peppermint extract, mixing until thoroughly combined. Gently fold in 8 ounces of thawed frozen whipped topping.
  3. Pour the filling into the cooled Oreo crust and spread it evenly. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  4. In a mixing bowl, pour in 1 cup of heavy whipping cream. Whip the cream on medium speed while gradually adding 1/4 cup of powdered sugar and additional peppermint extract until stiff peaks form.
  5. Once the pie has set, spread the whipped cream topping over the pie, then garnish with crushed peppermint candies and optional white chocolate shavings.
