Description
A simple, no-bake layered dessert featuring a crunchy Oreo crust, rich peanut butter cream, silky chocolate pudding, and fluffy whipped topping. It requires only five main ingredients and is perfect for make-ahead entertaining.
Ingredients
- 24 Oreo cookies (about 3 sleeves), crushed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups heavy cream or half-and-half
- 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
- 2 boxes (3.4 oz each) instant chocolate pudding mix
- Optional garnish: crushed Oreos or chocolate shavings
Instructions
- Crush Oreos into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter until resembling wet sand. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch dish. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add peanut butter and mix until combined.
- In a separate bowl, whisk instant vanilla pudding mix with heavy cream until thickened (about 2 minutes). Fold this mixture into the cream cheese and peanut butter mixture. Spread evenly over the crust and refrigerate for 15 minutes to set.
- Whisk instant chocolate pudding mix with cold milk (or as directed on package) until thick. Gently fold in the entire tub of thawed whipped topping. Do not overmix.
- Spread the chocolate whipped topping mixture evenly over the set peanut butter layer. Garnish with crushed Oreos or chocolate shavings.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow layers to set and flavors to meld. Cut into squares with a sharp knife to serve.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps. Press the crust firmly to prevent crumbling. Use a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean slices. This dessert does not freeze well as whipped topping may separate upon thawing. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
