Step 1
Crush 12 cookies into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter until it resembles wet sand.
Step 2
Press half the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch round cake pan or dish.
Step 3
Heat 1 cup heavy cream in a saucepan over medium until it steams. Pour over chopped chocolate; let sit 30 seconds, then whisk until glossy.
Step 4
Spread half the ganache over the crumb layer. Refrigerate 3 minutes until it sets slightly.
Step 5
Whip remaining 0.5 cup heavy cream with powdered sugar, cocoa powder, and vanilla until soft peaks form.
Step 6
Crush remaining 12 cookies. Layer frosting, then crushed cookies, then remaining ganache. Top with cocoa dust.
