Instructions
- Place the chocolate chips and 1 cup of the heavy whipping cream in a microwave safe bowl.
- Heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted. Then stir in salt. Be careful not to overheat and burn the chocolate.
- Let the chocolate mixture sit at room temperature to allow it to cool slightly.
- In a separate bowl, beat the remaining heavy whipping cream, vanilla extract and powdered sugar with a stand up mixer or hand held mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Carefully fold the whipped cream mixture into the chocolate mixture until just combined.
- Be careful not to over mix
- Pour this mixture into the Oreo crust and chill for at least 4 hours until the pie is set (overnight works great too).
- When serving, top with the whipped cream and chocolate shavings.
- Notes: Refrigerate the leftovers, covered, for up to 5 days.
