Step by Step Instructions:

Step 1 – To make the crust, place whole Oreo cookies with the filling in a food processor and ground in fine crumbs. Stir in melted butter and press the mixture in the bottom of 13 x 9 inches baking dish. Chill crust while preparing other layers.

Step 2 – To make Hot Chocolate Cheesecake Layer, beat softened butter and cream cheese with vanilla and powdered sugar until creamy and smooth in a large bowl. Mix in instant milk chocolate powder into cheesecake mixture and fold in the cool whip.

Step 3 – Then, spread over the crust and set in the fridge or freezer to firm.

Step 4 – For pudding, set in a bowl whisk instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until it starts thickening. Spread over whipped cream and hot chocolate mousse layer. Place in the fridge or freezer to set.

Step 5 – When pudding layer has set, Spread cool whip on top of pudding layer. Then place in the fridge for a few hours or better overnight.

Step 6 – Before serving sprinkle 2 cup mini marshmallows over the top. Serve drizzled with melted chocolate. Store leftovers in the fridge.

Recipe Tips:

• Crushing Oreos – Crush Oreos in a food processor to get that fine crumb texture. If you do not have a food processor, place Oreos in a ziplock bag and crush with a rolling pin.
• Freeze Layers – As you are layering the mixture into the baking dish, make sure to freeze. This allows the layers to set to create a delicious dessert lasagna and prevents it from being mushy.
• Cream Cheese – Before combining the cream cheese mixture make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature. This creates a smooth and creamy texture.

Serving Suggestions:

This dessert is perfect served just as the recipe is written. But even more delicious drizzle the top with chocolate syrup or serve with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

For the perfect combination, add a cup of hot chocolate to enjoy with this delicious dessert.
