Add and incorporate the milk, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, stopping when the crumbs are moist enough to mold into a pie shell (this may take only 1 1/2 tablespoons of milk to accomplish).
• Spread the Oreo crust mixture evenly across the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate so that it covers the entire dish. There should be no gaps in the crust. Bake for 5 minutes. Cool the pie shell for 30 minutes before adding your desired pie filling.
