- Crush the Oreos, saving about 1 cup to sprinkle on top later.
- In a small bowl, mix the remaining crushed Oreos with melted butter.
- Press the crumb and butter mixture into the bottom of a 9 x 13 cake pan to form the crust.
- Prepare the chocolate pudding according to the package directions and let it set up in the fridge.
- Using an electric mixer, blend half of the cool whip, softened cream cheese, and powdered sugar in a large bowl.
- Spread the cool whip/cream cheese/sugar mixture on top of the Oreo crust.
- Layer the chocolate pudding over the cool whip mixture, followed by the remaining cool whip mixture on top.
- Sprinkle the saved 1 cup of crushed Oreos over the final layer.
- Refrigerate the dessert until ready to serve.
Tips:
- Ensure the cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps in the cool whip mixture.
- For a twist, try using different flavored Oreos or pudding mix to customize the dessert.
- Allow the chocolate pudding to set properly in the fridge for a firmer texture.
- Experiment with variations like adding chopped nuts or drizzling chocolate sauce on top for extra decadence.
