Equipment

  • - 9x13-inch baking dish
  • Mixing bowls
  • - Hand mixer or stand mixer
  • - Rubber spatula
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • - Food processor or plastic bag with rolling pin (for crushing Oreos)

Ingredients
  

  • - 36 Oreo cookies about 3 cups crushed
  • - 6 tablespoons unsalted butter melted
  • - 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • - 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • - 1 teaspoon mint extract adjust to taste
  • - 1–2 drops green food coloring optional
  • - 16 ounces whipped topping like Cool Whip, divided
  • - 2 3.9 oz boxes instant chocolate pudding mix
  • - 3 1/2 cups cold milk
  • - 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips or chopped Andes mints optional topping

Instructions
 

  • **Make the crust**
  • Crush the Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs form. Mix the crumbs with melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to form an even layer. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.
  • **Prepare the mint layer**
  • In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and mint extract until smooth. If using food coloring, add a drop or two to achieve a light green hue. Gently fold in 1 cup of the whipped topping until well combined. Spread this mint cream mixture evenly over the chilled crust. Return to the refrigerator.
  • **Mix the pudding**
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes, until thickened. Spread the pudding over the mint layer. Place back in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
  • **Top with whipped topping**
  • Carefully spread the remaining whipped topping over the chocolate pudding layer. If desired, sprinkle mini chocolate chips or chopped Andes mints on top.
  • **Chill**
  • Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours (or overnight) to allow layers to set and flavors to meld.
  • **Serve**
  • Slice and enjoy chilled. Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator.
