Carefully press the cookies into the bottom and sides of your pan as evenly as you can. Pop in the fridge.

3.  Use a mortar and pestle to crush remaining Oreos, cream and all. Gently fold Oreos into the chocolate mixture. Pour over the Oreo cookie base, smooth top and pop into the freezer for at least 8 hours or overnight.
4. Remove the ice cream pie from the freezer. Beat the cream using an electric mixer, until whipped. Fold in the cocoa powder and icing sugar. Transfer to a piping bag, fitted with a large star tip, and pipe chocolate cream swirls around the edges. Decorate with mini Oreos.
