Ingredients:
For the Crust:

For the Ganache:
- 4 ounces semisweet baking chocolate, roughly chopped
- 1/3 cup heavy cream
- 1 1/2 cups to 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled
For the Filling:

- 1 cups milk
- 1 package instant chocolate pudding
- 1 cup Cool Whip
For Garnish:
- Chocolate shavings, for topping (optional)
- Whipped cream, for serving (optional)

Directions:
- Start by making the crust - place the Oreo cookie and 1/3 cup butter into a food processor. Pulse until fine crumbs form.
- Place the crumb mixture into a 9" pie pan with removable bottom and press into the bottom and the sides evenly.
- Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
- Using a hand mixer or a whisk, mix cream cheese until creamy. Add chocolate pudding powder, then gradually add milk, continuing to mix until well-combined and starting to thicken. Set aside.
- To make the ganache, in a microwave-safe bowl add the chocolate and heavy cream. Microwave on 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
- Pour the ganache over the chilled Oreo crust and arrange the strawberries. Refrigerate for 5 more minutes.
- While the ganache is setting, finish the chocolate filling.
- Carefully fold in the Cool Whip until well-combined, then spoon the chocolate filling over the strawberries and even out the top.
- Evenly sprinkle some chocolate shavings over the pie and chill for at least 4 hours before cutting into slices.
- Just before serving, you can add dollops of whipped cream and fresh strawberries.
