Ingredients
  

  • 36 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 packages (3.9 oz each) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3.5 cups whole milk
  • 16 ounces whipped topping, thawed

Method
 

  1. Crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs.
  2. Press two-thirds of the cookie crumbs into a 9x13 inch baking dish to create a firm base.
  3. In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a splash of milk until smooth.
  4. Fold half of the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until uniform.
  5. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cookie base.
  6. Whisk the instant chocolate pudding mix with the remaining milk until thickened.
  7. Spread the pudding layer over the cream cheese layer.
  8. Top with the remaining whipped topping and garnish with the reserved cookie crumbs.
  9. Refrigerate for at least four hours to allow the layers to set before slicing.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps. For a cleaner slice, wipe your knife clean between cuts. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.
