If you’re hosting a Halloween shin-dig on Thursday, consider making this fun little treat for your guests!
Ingredients:
- 3 cups – Oreo cookie crumbs, finely ground, divided
- 3 tablespoons – melted butter
- 1 cans – evaporated milk, 12 oz. (Print a $.50 coupon here!)
- 2 – large egg yolks
- 2 tablespoons – cornstarch
- 1 3/4 cups – chocolate chips, 11.5 oz. pkg.
- 8 – chocolate filled vanilla wafer cookies, such as Milano cookies
- – black and purple decorator writing gels
- – spooky gummies candy, skulls & bones, for decoration
- – Butterfinger and Nestle Crunch candy bars, crumbled
Directions:
Combine 1 1/2 cups cookie crumbs and butter in 9-inch deep-dish pie plate. Press crumb mixture onto bottom and up sides of pie plate. Set aside remaining 1 1/2 cups crumbs for dirt topping.
Whisk together evaporated milk, egg yolks and cornstarch in medium saucepan. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is very hot and thickens slightly; do not boil. Remove from heat; stir in chocolate chips until completely melted and mixture is smooth.
Pour into prepared crust. Sprinkle with remaining 1 1/2 cups cookie crumbs. Press crumbs down gently. Refrigerate for 3 hours or until set.
Decorate cookie tombstones as desired with writing gels. Sprinkle crumbled candy bar topping over the top of the pie. Insert tombstones around edge of pie. With spoon, mound cookie crumbs to form “fresh graves.” Decorate graves with gummies and Skulls & Bones or other spooky Halloween candies to make the pie as spooky as you want it to be!
