Ingredients

Scale

The beauty of this dish lies in its simplicity. You won’t need a treasure map to find these ingredients, just a quick trip to your pantry and fridge.

  • 1 package (14.3 oz) of chocolate sandwich cookies
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 package (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)

If you’re a little short on whipped topping, no worries—my mom would have just whipped up some magic with a splash of cream and sugar. It’s all about making it yours.

Instructions

Follow these simple steps, and you’ll have a dessert that’ll not only impress but also bring a little extra joy to your home.

  1. Begin by crushing the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor until fine. If you’re feeling nostalgic, use a rolling pin like my kids do—it’s messy but fun.
  2. Mix the crushed cookies with the melted butter until well combined, then press into the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish to form a crust.
  3. In a large bowl, beat together the peanut butter, powdered sugar, and cream cheese until smooth. Fold in half of the whipped topping until well blended.
  4. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the cookie crust.
  5. In another bowl, whisk together the milk and chocolate pudding mix until thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour over the peanut butter layer.
  6. Spread the remaining whipped topping over the pudding layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
  7. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips on top, if desired. Because who doesn’t love a little extra chocolate?
  8. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set, before slicing and serving.
