This Cookies and Cream Slab Pie is easy to make. It is the perfect dessert to feed a large group. Pie crust layered with fudge sauce, a decadent combination of cream cheese and whipped cream with crushed cookies, and a final layer of more crushed cookies!
Labor Day is next week. This Cookies and Cream Slab Pie would be a perfect dessert to include if you are grilling out or just having a small get together!
This dessert works best in a traditional jellyroll pan. A jellyroll pan is typically 10 1/2 inches by 15 1/2 inches with 1 inch high sides. If you do not have a jellyroll plan, you can substitute a similar size pan or baking dish. Just make sure the pan or dish has high enough sides. The slab pie may bee thinner or thicker based on the size pan you use, so keep that in mind. I like having a jellyroll pan on hand since I can also use it as a typical baking sheet well.
