Ingredients
Method
Preparation
- Soften the cream cheese so it blends smoothly.
- Beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together in a large bowl until creamy and lump-free.
- Gently fold 1 1/2 cups of the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until evenly combined. Reserve the remaining 1/2 cup whipped topping for the top layer. Set the cream cheese mixture aside.
Pudding Preparation
- In a separate bowl, whisk the instant chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups cold milk for about 2 minutes until it thickens.
Assembly
- Arrange a single layer of chocolate sandwich cookies on the bottom of a 9×13-inch pan, breaking cookies as needed to fill gaps.
- Spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cookie layer.
- Pour half of the prepared chocolate pudding over the cream cheese layer and spread gently.
- Repeat with another single layer of cookies, the remaining cream cheese mixture, and finally the remaining pudding.
- Spread the reserved 1/2 cup whipped topping over the final pudding layer.
Chilling
- Refrigerate the pan for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to let the layers set.
- Before serving, sprinkle chocolate chips across the top.

Notes
For a lighter cream layer, substitute half the cream cheese with mascarpone or Greek yogurt. For variations, consider flavors like mint chocolate or peanut butter swirl. Store covered in the fridge for up to 4–5 days or freeze for up to 1 month.
