Ingredients for this Crumbl French Silk Pie Cookies recipe

Here are the ingredients you will need to make this Crumbl dupe. Make sure to scroll down to the recipe card for the full detailed ingredient measurements.

Oreos–Make sure to use regular Oreos and not the double stuffed or thin ones.
Flour– AP flour works great here.
Black cocoa–In the spirit of keeping this cookie the same as the Crumbl Oreo one we will be using black cocoa.
Baking soda & baking powder– These will give our cookie a little height.
Cornstarch– This will make the cookies extra tender.
Salt– The salt will help balance out the sweetness of this recipe.
Butter– Make sure to use softened butter. You can use either salted or unsalted.
Brown sugar & granulated sugar- The combination of sugars will help make this cookie extra soft
Egg– The egg is our binding agent.
Vanilla extract– The vanilla extract will add extra depth to the cookies and the frosting as well.
Chocolate pudding- This is used to make the chocolate mousse
Powdered sugar
Heavy cream & milk
Semi-sweet chocolate- We use chocolate in the mousse as well.
Whipped cream– Make homemade or store-bought.
Chocolate curls– Optional for decorations

Can I use double-stuff Oreos or thin Oreos for this recipe?

No, make sure to use regular Oreos to keep the texture of these cookies the same. If you use the double stuffed Oreos, the stuffing will bring too much moisture to these cookies and if you use the think ones, there won’t be enough cookies or stuffing to make the exact cookie dough that I made for this recipe. Please stick to the regular oreos.

CAN I USE REGULAR COCOA POWDER INSTEAD OF BLACK COCOA POWDER?

Yes, you can. I prefer using black cocoa to make it really taste like Oreo cookies, but if you are in a pinch and don’t have it, regular will work just fine!
