Crumbl French Silk Pie Cookies

These are the best Crumbl French silk pie cookies ever!

Who doesn’t love a French silk pie turned cookie for the perfect single-serve dessert out there.

This recipe is inspired by the Crumbl bakery which has been having it on rotation for a little while. They make it with a dark cocoa Oreo chocolate cookie base and top it with a smooth mousse, whipped cream, and chocolate curls.

What is French Silk pie?

A french silk pie is an oreo cookie-crusted pie filled with a very rich, decadent, and creamy chocolate filling, and to finish it all off topped with light whipped cream and chocolate shavings.

It is called silk pie because of how smooth and silky it is.

Why you need to make this recipe!

  • It is a delicious and impressive cookie recipe that you can make at home.
  • They are packed with Oreo flavors.
  • With this recipe, you can make them anytime the cravings hit, no need to wait for crumbl to bring them back.
  • You will also save a ton of money by making this recipe at home instead of buying it from Crumbl bakery!

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! 

How to make Crumbl French silk pie cookies

This is how you can make these cookies. Make sure to scroll down to the recipe card for the full detailed instructions!

  1. Cream the butter and sugar together until smooth. 
  2. Mix in the egg and vanilla extract. 
  3. Add in the dry ingredients and mix again. 
  4. Scoop out the cookie dough, place it on a baking sheet, gently flatten the cookies to about 1 inch in thickness and bake for 10 minutes.
  5. Make an indentation with a ⅓ cup measuring cup in the center of the cookie where our filling will go and allow the cookies to cool down fully.

Make the chocolate mousse filling

  • In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, milk, pudding mix, and powdered sugar and whisk until light and fluffy. This will take a few minutes.
  • In a small bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30-second increments.
  • Add in the melted chocolate to the chocolate pudding mixture and whip again to combine.
  • Fill each cookie with a generous amount of the chocolate pudding mixture, top with whipped cream and chocolate curls, and enjoy!

These cookies can also be frozen in an air-tight container for up to 2 months. Make sure to flash freeze them first to allow the frosting to set before transferring them to an air-tight container so that it doesn’t get smooshed.

How to make mini catering-sized Crumbl silk pie cookies?

Instead of making 8 large cookies, you can also make 16 smaller cookies. Now, instead of baking them for 10 minutes you can bake them for 8 minutes, use a tablespoon to make the indentation in the center, let them cool down on the baking sheet fully then transfer the mini cookies to a cooling rack.

Once the cookies are cooled down, you can decorate them as you could the larger cookies, then enjoy!
