Instructions
Chocolate Crust
Add the Oreo cookies to a food processor and pulse to chop into coarse crumbs. Mix with the melted butter in a mixing bowl until combined.
Press into the bottom of a 9-inch spring form pan. Set in the fridge to chill.
Milk Chocolate Cheesecake
In a small mixing bowl or large glass measuring cup, melt chocolate in microwave for 1 minute, stir until completely melted. If it needs more time, microwave for another 30 seconds then stir. Let it cool to room temp.
Beat cream cheese, sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla extract in large bowl until smooth. Add in melted (cooled) chocolate and beat again until smooth, wiping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
Once combined stir in the Cool Whip until smooth and creamy; spread over prepared crust.
Top with 2 cups of miniature marshmallows and 1 1/4 cups of pecans. Then set in the fridge to chill until filling is slightly firm.
Chocolate Frosting
Stir together powdered sugar and vanilla in a medium mixing bowl then set aside.
In a small sauce pan combine the butter, milk, and cocoa powder over medium heat. Stir constantly, about 3-4 minutes or until butter melts. Remove from heat and pour into the bowl powdered sugar and vanilla, whisk until smooth.
Let it cool for 5-8 minutes. Using a spoon, drizzle large amounts of frosting over the cheesecake. I used all but 1/4 and then saved the rest to dip animal crackers in, but you can use as much as you'd like.
You can add more pecans and marshmallows on top of the frosting if you'd like. Place back in the fridge for another hour to let the filling set. Serve, and enjoy!
