• In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, cookie spread and confectioners' sugar until combined. Fold in 1 carton whipped topping. Divide mixture between crusts. Top with remaining container whipped topping. Drizzle with syrup; sprinkle with cookie crumbs. Freeze, covered, until firm, at least 4 hours.

COOKIE BUTTER PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the cookies and brown sugar in a food processor; pulse until the cookies form fine crumbs. Add 6 tablespoons of the melted butter and pulse a couple more times, until the mixture resembles wet sand. If the mixture seems dry, add an additional tablespoon of butter. Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan, pressing it over the bottom and up the sides. Bake until slightly dried, 7 to 8 minutes. Cool completely.
• For the pie filling: Beat the heavy cream, confectioners' sugar and vanilla bean paste in a clean, cold bowl with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently scoop half the whipped cream into a pastry bag fitted with a star tip and refrigerate. Scoop the other half of the whipped cream into a clean bowl. In the bowl the cream was whipped in (no need to clean it), beat the cream cheese on medium speed for 1 minute. Add the cookie butter and orange extract and beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
• Gently fold the whipped cream into the cookie butter mixture, being careful not to overmix. Pour the mixture into the cooled pie crust and refrigerate until set, 2 to 3 hours.
• Using the pastry bag with whipped cream, decorate the top of the pie with small mounds around the perimeter. Garnish with the cashews and orange zest.

SPECULOOS COOKIE BUTTER PIE

Steps:

• Lightly spray a 9-inch pie plate with nonstick spray.
• In the bowl of a food processor, pulse the cookies into fine crumbs, about 1 minute. (You should have about 1 1/2 cups.) Add the melted butter and pulse until the mixture is uniformly combined and sticks together when pressed, 15 to 20 seconds. Press the crust evenly into the base and up the sides of the pie plate. Freeze the crust while you heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Bake the chilled crust until it appears set and the edges start to darken slightly, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool completely.
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese and cookie butter on medium speed, 1 to 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl, then add the confectioners' sugar and mix on low speed until fully incorporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Scrape down the sides of the bowl.
• In a liquid measuring cup with a spout, mix the 1 1/4 cups cream with the vanilla and salt to combine. Increase the mixer speed to medium and gradually add the cream mixture to the cream cheese mixture in a slow, steady stream. Continue to mix just until the mixture has thickened and holds medium peaks, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Do not overwhip, which could cause the mixture to separate.
• Pour the filling into the cooled pie crust and smooth into an even layer. Freeze the pie for 20 minutes to set the filling, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill until the filling is firm, about 45 minutes.
• Prepare the whipped cream, if using: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the whip attachment, whip the remaining 3/4 cup cream to medium peaks. Spread in an even layer on top of the chilled pie and garnish with a sprinkling of cookie crumbs, if desired. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
