  • 1 3/4 cups (397ml) heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup (113ml) Baileys Irish Cream
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons espresso powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 1/2 cup (113g) unsalted butter, room temperature and cubed

Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lightly spraying it with nonstick spray.
  2. Crush the Oreo cookies in a food processor or blender until very fine crumbs form.
  3. Mix the crushed cookies with the melted butter and press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Freeze the crust for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Put the finely chopped chocolate in a heatproof bowl and set aside.
  5. Warm the heavy cream and Baileys in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer, then remove from heat.
  6. Stir in vanilla extract, espresso powder, and sea salt into the hot cream mixture.
  7. Pour the hot cream mixture over the chopped chocolate and let sit for one minute, then whisk until smooth and fully combined.
  8. Add the cubed butter into the chocolate mixture and whisk vigorously until the butter melts and the filling becomes glossy.
  9. Pour the chocolate filling into the chilled Oreo crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours until set.
  10. Just before serving, beat the cold heavy cream with the confectioners' sugar until medium-soft peaks form.
  11. Spread or dollop the whipped cream over the top of the chilled pie and add chocolate shavings if desired.
