Equipment

• Mixing Bowl
• Baking Sheet
• Parchment Paper
• Cookie Cutter or Glass

Ingredients

• 1 package Oreo cookies (crushed into fine crumbs) 
• 4 oz cream cheese, softened 
• 1 cup chocolate chips or chocolate spread 
• 1 package refrigerated pie crusts (or homemade pie dough) 
• 1 egg (for egg wash) 
• 1 tbsp milk 
• 1 tbsp sugar (optional, for sprinkling) 

Directions

Step 1: Prepare Oven and Baking Sheet

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper so the hand pies won’t stick. 

Step 2: Make the Oreo-Cream Filling

In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies with the softened cream cheese. Stir with a spoon or rubber spatula until the crumbs and cream cheese form a thick, dough-like mixture. 

Step 3: Roll Out Pie Crust

Unroll your refrigerated pie crusts on a lightly floured surface. Use a cookie cutter or a glass to cut out circles about 4 inches in diameter. Reroll scraps as needed until all crust is used. 

Step 4: Stuff the Hand Pies

Place about 1 tablespoon of the Oreo-cream mixture in the center of each dough circle. Add a few chocolate chips or a small dollop of chocolate spread on top of the filling. 

Step 5: Seal the Hand Pies

Fold each dough circle in half over the filling so it becomes a half-moon shape. Press edges firmly with a fork to seal, making sure no filling leaks out during baking. 

Step 6: Make the Egg Wash

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk until smooth. Brush the mixture over the tops of each hand pie lightly — this will help them turn beautifully golden. 

Step 7: Add Optional Sugar

If you like extra crunch and sparkle, sprinkle the tops with sugar now before baking. 

Step 8: Bake Until Golden

Place the prepared hand pies on the parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the crust turns golden brown and the filling is hot and melty. 

Step 9: Cool and Serve

Remove from the oven and let the hand pies cool slightly on the baking sheet so the filling sets just a bit. Serve warm for gooey chocolate goodness, or at room temperature for convenience. 

Pro Tips and Variations

• Soften cream cheese completely so the filling mixes smoothly. 
• Don’t overfill — too much filling may cause leaks. 
• Add a chocolate drizzle after baking for extra indulgence.
• Try mini marshmallows in the filling for a s’mores twist.

Serving Suggestions

• Serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for dessert night.
• Pair with coffee, cold milk, or hot cocoa for snacks.
• Dust with powdered sugar for a bakery look.

Storage / Reheating

• Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 days. 
• Refrigerator: Keep for up to 1 week. 
• Freezer: Wrap individually and freeze; reheat in the oven for best texture.
