Description
A delicious and festive no-bake dessert featuring layers of Oreo cookies, cream cheese, chocolate pudding, and whipped topping, perfect for Christmas celebrations.
Ingredients
- 36 Oreo cookies, crushed
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 (12-ounce) container whipped topping, thawed
- 1 (3.9-ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies (for topping)
- Additional whole Oreos for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter. Mix until the cookies are evenly coated.
- Press the Oreo mixture into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish to form a crust.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Fold in half of the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until well combined. Spread this mixture evenly over the Oreo crust in the baking dish.
- In another bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and milk for about 2 minutes until thickened. Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Pour the chocolate pudding over the cream cheese layer and spread it evenly.
- Top the pudding layer with the remaining whipped topping, smoothing it out with a spatula.
- Sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies over the top for a festive touch. If desired, add whole Oreos for garnish.
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the layers to set properly.
Notes
- For a different flavor, substitute the chocolate pudding with vanilla or white chocolate pudding.
- Add a layer of chopped strawberries or raspberries between the cream cheese and pudding layers for a fruity twist.
