This Halloween Oreo pie made the rounds in 1993, offering a cold and colorful twist on the classic cookie crust dessert. It’s a simple freezer pie made with orange sherbet, Cool Whip and chopped Oreos, all layered into a ready-made crust. Add a few candy pumpkins on top to turn it into a Halloween-ready treat without much effort.
The original recipe was part of a seasonal ad campaign, but it holds up as an easy dessert you can make ahead of time. The bright orange filling adds a festive look, and the crunchy cookie crust gives it a bit of texture, making for a vintage Halloween treat that is quick to put together and easy to serve.
