Oreo Lasagna

Indulge in layers of creamy goodness, crunchy Oreos, and heavenly chocolate pudding with this delightful Oreo Delight Dessert. Perfect for potlucks, parties, or satisfying your sweet cravings, this easy-to-make dessert will become a family favorite.

Ingredients:

1 package regular Oreos (about 36 cookies)
6 tablespoons butter, melted
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
16 oz Cool Whip, divided
1 (5.9-ounce) package chocolate instant pudding
2 3/4 cups cold milk

Instructions:

Prepare the Oreo Crust:
Crush the whole package of Oreos, either using a food processor or by placing them in a plastic bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Save 1 cup of the crushed Oreos for later use as a topping.
In a bowl, mix the remaining Oreo crumbs with melted butter until well combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking dish to create the crust. Ensure it’s evenly distributed and firm. Place the dish in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer:
Using an electric mixer, combine softened cream cheese, half of the Cool Whip, and powdered sugar in a large bowl. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the Oreo crust. Return the dish to the refrigerator while you make the pudding layer.
Prepare the Chocolate Pudding Layer:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chocolate instant pudding mix and cold milk. Whisk for several minutes until the pudding starts to thicken.
Spread the pudding over the cream cheese layer in the baking dish. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to firm up.
Complete the Dessert:
Spread the remaining half of the Cool Whip over the chocolate pudding layer, creating a smooth and creamy topping.
Sprinkle the reserved 1 cup of Oreo crumbs over the Cool Whip layer, ensuring an even distribution.
Chill and Serve:
Cover the dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld together.
Serve and Enjoy:
Slice into squares and serve chilled. Each bite offers a delightful combination of creamy filling, crunchy Oreo crumbs, and luscious chocolate pudding.
