Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 36 Oreo cookies
- 6 tbsp butter, melted
Cream Cheese Layer
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup whipped topping, folded in
Chocolate Pudding Layer
- 7.8 oz instant chocolate pudding mix (2 boxes, 3.9 oz each)
- 3 cups whole milk, cold
Topping
- 2 cups whipped topping
- 1 cup crushed Oreos (for garnish)
Instructions
- Make the Oreo crust: Mix the finely crushed Oreo cookies with the melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch dish to form a tight crust layer. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to allow the crust to firm up.
- Add the cream cheese layer: Beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping until well combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the chilled Oreo crust layer.
- Add the chocolate pudding layer: Whisk the instant chocolate pudding mix together with the cold whole milk for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and becomes glossy. Spread the pudding evenly over the cream cheese layer, extending it to the edges of the dish.
- Top and chill: Spread the remaining 2 cups of whipped topping gently and evenly over the pudding layer, covering it completely. Sprinkle crushed Oreos generously over the top for added texture and decoration.
- Set and serve: Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours or preferably overnight so it fully sets and the layers hold their shape. Once set, cut into squares and serve chilled.
Notes
- For best results, ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing.
- This dessert can be prepared a day ahead, making it perfect for parties or gatherings.
- Use cold milk to help the pudding mix thicken properly.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- For a lighter version, use reduced-fat cream cheese and whipped topping.
