Oreo Lasagna Chocolate Dessert (Print Version)

Decadent layered treat with Oreo crust, creamy layers, rich chocolate, and crushed Oreo topping.

# Ingredients:

→ Crust

01 - 48 Oreo cookies, finely crushed
02 - 10 tablespoons salted butter, melted

→ Cream Cheese Layer

03 - 12 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
04 - 3/4 cup powdered sugar
05 - 8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
07 - 6 Oreo cookies, finely crushed

→ Pudding Layer

08 - 3 cups half and half or whole milk
09 - 7.8 ounces instant chocolate pudding mix
10 - 6 Oreo cookies, finely crushed

→ Topping

11 - 8 ounces Cool Whip, thawed
12 - 12 Oreo cookies, finely crushed

# Steps:

01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine 48 finely crushed Oreo cookies with melted salted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles damp sand. Evenly press into the base of a 9x13 inch baking dish to form a compact crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the next layer.
02 - With a hand or stand mixer, blend cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add Cool Whip and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated. Gently fold in crushed Oreos. Spread this layer over the chilled crust and refrigerate again.
03 - In a mixing bowl, whisk together half and half or whole milk with instant chocolate pudding mix until thickened. Fold in crushed Oreos. Evenly distribute the pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer. Place in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to allow it to slightly set.
04 - Spread remaining Cool Whip evenly over the pudding layer. Sprinkle with the reserved finely crushed Oreos. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours to allow layers to set completely before serving.

# Notes:

01 - For clean layers, ensure each layer is fully chilled before adding the next.
