Ingredients
Crust
- 20 chocolate sandwich cookies
- 4 tablespoons salted butter

- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 ½ cups heavy whipping cream

Toppings

- caramel sauce
- whipped cream
Instructions
Crust
- If using a premade crust, skip the next two steps.
- Crush 20 Oreo cookies with a food processor, or place cookies in a plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pen.
- Mix crushed cookies with the melted butter until evenly coated. Then press the Cookie mixture into a 9-inch pie plate.
Filling
- Chop the pecans; reserve some for topping, if desired. Then mix chopped pecans with caramel topping and salt.
- Evenly spread the pecan mixture on top of the Oreo crust in the pie plate.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the pudding mix and cream until firm, stiff peaks form. The consistency should be easily spreadable and a little looser than buttercream.
- Spread the pudding mixture over the pecans in the pie plate.
- Refrigerate for at least one hour to allow the pie to set.
Topping
- Drizzle the chocolate sauce and caramel on top of the pie. You may need to heat the Carmel and chocolate for easier drizzling.
- Decorate the edge of the pie with whipped cream.
- Sprinkle with the reserved pecans if desired.

Notes
Instead of stabilized whipped cream for the topping, you can also use canned whipped cream or whipped topping.
You can add toppings before refrigerating, but if using store-bought whipped cream, the cream will deflate and become watery.
I like the texture of the crumbly crust for this pie, but if you want a firmer crust, finely crush the cookies.
This pie can be made a day in advance. Add the toppings just before serving.
Cover and refrigerate any leftovers for up to three days.
