- Strain the yolk mixture through a fine sieve mesh.

Tips For Making Oreo Crusted Lemon Chiffon Pie
- Take extra care that the yolks don't overcook. Scrambled eggs definitely don't make an appearance in this!
- Top with additional crushed Oreos.
- Use a combination of chocolate and lemon or vanilla oreos for some extra flavor variety.
- Give it plenty of time to set. I know it's SUPER tempting to dig into this right away but give it a minimum of 3 hours to set, up to overnight.
FAQs:
With a pie that's already a better than sex dessert, I don't think you realllly need to change anything. It's perfection as it is! But, you can absolutely take the Oreo pie crust from the recipe to use in others or even switch up the lemon filling to lime or anything flavor. I bet key lime would also take delicious!
You can store this no bake Oreo dessert in the fridge for up to 3 days. Just keep it covered with foil or transfer to an airtight container.
This no bake chiffon pie is not the best option for freezing, due to the egg whites in the filling. They do not hold up well when thawed, turning from light and fluffy into rubbery.

Instructions
For Oreo crust:
- Remove cream fillings. Put Oreo cookies in a food processor and crush them into very fine crumbs. Or put them in a Ziploc bag and use a rolling pin to crush them into fine crumbs.
- In a mixing bowl, mix cookies crumbs and melted butter until they are combined.
- Pour cookie crumbs mixture into a lightly greased pan. Use a measuring cup to press into an even and tight layer.
- For the extra crispy of the crust, refrigerate the baking pan until the filling is ready.
For filling:
- Bloom gelatin sheets (or gelatin powder) in ice-cold water. Let them bloom while prepping other ingredients.
- Meanwhile, separate egg whites and yolks.
- Put egg yolks in a large mixing bowl, use a whisk, and beat them until thick, approximately 2 minutes. Set up a double boiler. Then cook beaten egg yolks, 1 cup of sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and salt over medium heat until sugar dissolved completely and the mixture is thickened, approximately 2 minutes. Remember to stir constantly with a whisk or a rubber spatula.
- Don’t let egg yolks cooked and become scramble. If so, discard the mixture and start over. Most likely the double boiler will prevent this from happening.
- Turn off the heat. Squeeze excess water out of the gelatin sheet then put them in the mixture. Stir the mixture until all the gelatin sheets dissolved completely. Take the top of the double boiler off the stove immediately.
- Strain the yolk mixture through a fine sieve mesh.
- Let the mixture cool down at room temperature, about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Stirring occasionally.
- Put egg whites in a mixing bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until foamy. Gradually add the remaining ½ cup of sugar to the egg whites. Increase the speed to high and continue to beat until stiff peaks are formed approximately 2 to 3 minutes.
- Transferred egg white mixture to a large, clean mixing bowl.
- Clean the mixing bowl of the stand mixer before add heavy cream in. Beat heavy cream on high speed until stiff peaks are formed, approximately 1 to 2 minutes.
- Fold 1/3 of egg white mixture into the yolk mixture. When the egg white combines completely, continue to add another 1/3 of egg white mixture with ½ of the whipped cream into the yolk mixture. Continue to fold/whisk until everything combined. Then add the rest of the egg white into this mixture, and continue the process.
- Line the side of the baking pan with parchment paper. Pour the chiffon mixture onto the crust.
- Refrigerate the cake until set, at least 3 hours.
- Serve the cake chill with your favorite garnish.
