Oreo Delight

Ingredients

• 1 pack Double Stuf Oreo cookies (Crushed; approximately 14.3 oz (405 g) package. Reserve 1/3 cup of the crumb mixture for topping.)
• 1 stick Butter (Melted; 1 stick is approximately 1/2 cup.)
• 2 boxes Instant chocolate pudding mix (Use two standard boxes of instant pudding mix.)
• 3.25 cup Whole milk (3 1/4 cups.)
• 1 block Cream cheese (Softened; approximately 8 oz (226 g).)
• 1 cup Powdered sugar
• 2 containers Cool Whip whipped topping (Use one container in the cream cheese layer and one for the final topping; approximately two 8-oz containers total.)

Steps

1. 1

   Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Melt the butter and combine it with the crushed cookies until all the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture resembles wet sand.

2. 2

   Measure out and reserve 1/3 cup of the Oreo-butter mixture for the topping. Set it aside.

3. 3

   Press the remaining Oreo mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking pan to form the crust. Set the pan aside.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, whisk the two boxes of instant chocolate pudding mix with 3 1/4 cups of whole milk until smooth and thickened. Refrigerate the pudding while preparing the next layer.

5. 5

   In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth and fully combined, with no visible lumps.

6. 6

   Fold one container of Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture until evenly incorporated and light. Do not overmix or deflate the whipped topping unnecessarily.

7. 7

   Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the Oreo crust, reaching into the corners of the pan.

8. 8

   Spread the chilled chocolate pudding evenly over the cream cheese layer.

9. 9

   Spread the remaining container of Cool Whip evenly over the pudding layer.

10. 10

    Sprinkle the reserved Oreo-butter crumb mixture over the top as a garnish.

11. 11

    Refrigerate the assembled dessert for approximately 2 hours, or until thoroughly chilled and set. Slice and serve cold.

Notes

The source describes approximately 20 minutes of preparation plus 2 hours of chilling. Keep refrigerated. For cleaner slices, chill until fully set and use a sharp knife.
