6 Tablespoons salted butter, melted (crust)
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
3 Tablespoons salted butter, melted (brownie)
3 Tablespoons vegetable oil
2 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder
2/3 cup light brown sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
8 Oreo cookies (crushed for topping)
2 Tablespoons powdered sugar
1 Tablespoon Dutch-processed cocoa powder
Pinch of salt
2 Tablespoons salted butter, melted (topping)
6 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
1 cup cold heavy cream
2 Tablespoons Dutch-processed cocoa powder
2 Tablespoons powdered sugar
Pinch of salt (mousse)
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 Tablespoons unsweetened cocoa powder (whipped topping)


Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Crush 25 Oreos into fine crumbs. Mix with 6 Tbsp melted butter. Press into a 9-inch pie plate, bake 12-15 minutes, and cool.
Melt 4 oz bittersweet chocolate, 3 Tbsp butter, oil, and cocoa in microwave. Add brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, salt, and flour. Pour into cooled crust. Bake 25-30 minutes until set.
Crush 8 Oreos into chunks. Toss with powdered sugar, cocoa, salt, and 2 Tbsp melted butter. Spread on parchment, bake 10 minutes, then cool.
Melt 6 oz milk chocolate, cool to 90-100°F. Whisk with heavy cream, cocoa, powdered sugar, and salt until smooth. Chill for 4 hours. Spread over brownie layer.
Whip 1 cup cream, 1/4 cup sugar, and 3 Tbsp cocoa until stiff. Top mousse layer with whipped topping and toasted Oreos.

Notes

Use a food processor for Oreo crumbs. Monitor chocolate melting to avoid burning. Chill mousse overnight for optimal texture. Store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Serve chilled.
