Ingredients
Scale
Crust
- 20–25 Oreo cookies, crushed
- 6 tablespoons butter, melted
Chocolate Pudding Layer
- 1 package chocolate pudding mix
- 1 cup milk (1/2 cup for pudding, 2 tablespoons for raspberry layer)
- 1/2 cup Cool Whip
Raspberry Layer
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 1 cup Cool Whip
Topping
- Remaining Cool Whip for topping and decoration
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs and mix thoroughly with melted butter. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of an 8×8 Pyrex dish to form the crust. Place the dish in the freezer for about 10 minutes to set the crust firmly.
- Make the Chocolate Pudding Layer: Prepare the chocolate pudding according to package instructions but use only half the recommended milk (about 1/2 cup). Once the pudding has thickened, gently fold in 1/2 cup of Cool Whip to lighten the texture, then spread this chocolate layer evenly over the chilled Oreo crust. Return the dish to the freezer for 10-15 minutes to let the layer firm up.
- Create the Raspberry Layer: In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, sugar, 2 tablespoons of milk, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the raspberries along with 1 cup of Cool Whip, ensuring the raspberries are evenly distributed but not mashed. Spread this raspberry mixture evenly over the chilled chocolate pudding layer.
- Assemble and Decorate: Spread the remaining Cool Whip over the raspberry layer to create a smooth, creamy topping. Decorate as desired with extra raspberries or chocolate shavings for presentation.
- Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the assembled dessert for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the layers to set properly and flavors to meld together. Slice and serve chilled for a refreshing and indulgent treat.
Notes
- Use organic ingredients when possible for enhanced flavor and quality.
- For best results, prepare this dessert a day ahead to allow all layers to fully set and flavors to develop.
- Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
