Ingredients

2 cups Oreo cookie crumbs

3/4 cup softened butter, divided

1 package (10 ounces) mint chocolate chips

1/2 cup sugar

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

3 large eggs at room temperature, lightly beaten

Chopped dark chocolate, chocolate curls, whipped cream, optional

Directions

Preheat oven to 350°. Combine cookie crumbs and 1/4 cup butter; press onto bottom and up side of an ungreased 10-in. tart pan. Place tart pan on baking sheet; bake until crust is set, 12-15 minutes.
In a small heavy saucepan, heat cream and remaining butter over medium heat until bubbles form around side of pan. Place chocolate chips, sugar and vanilla in a bowl; pour cream mixture over chocolate and stir until chocolate is melted and sugar has dissolved. Slowly pour a third of the warm chocolate mixture into eggs while stirring continuously; return egg mixture to chocolate and stir until smooth.
Pour into prepared tart shell. Bake until center is just set (mixture will jiggle), 25-30 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack. If desired, top with whipped cream, chopped chocolate and chocolate curls. Refrigerate.
