Ingredients:
1 package chocolate chip cookie mix
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 container (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
Mini chocolate chips, for garnish
Directions:
Prepare the Cookie Crust:
Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the cookie mix package.
In a mixing bowl, blend the cookie mix and melted butter until thoroughly combined.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 9×13-inch baking dish.
Bake the cookie crust according to the package instructions.
Allow the crust to cool completely.
Make the Cream Cheese Layer:
In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Gently fold in half of the thawed whipped topping until well incorporated.
Spread Over the Cookie Crust:
Evenly spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled cookie crust.
Prepare the Chocolate Layer:
In another bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until thickened.
Assemble the Delight:
Spread the chocolate pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer.
Top with the remaining whipped topping.
Chill and Serve:
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours to allow it to set.
Before serving, sprinkle mini chocolate chips over the top for a delightful garnish.
Slice into squares and serve chilled.
Serving Tips:
Chilled Perfection: Serve the dessert chilled for the best texture and flavor. It sets beautifully after refrigerating for at least 4 hours, making it easier to slice into neat squares.
Garnish Fresh: Just before serving, sprinkle mini chocolate chips over each portion. This adds a delightful crunch and enhances the chocolatey goodness of the dessert.
Portion Control: Cut into squares using a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean edges. This ensures each serving is presented neatly and retains its layered structure.
Accompaniments: Consider serving with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream to complement the creamy and rich flavors of the dessert.
Storage Tips:
Refrigeration: Store any leftovers covered tightly with plastic wrap or in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It can last up to 3-4 days when properly stored.
Freezing: While this dessert can be frozen, it’s best enjoyed fresh due to the creamy layers. If freezing, wrap individual portions tightly in plastic wrap and then in foil. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
Layer Preservation: To maintain the integrity of each layer, avoid stacking multiple pieces on top of each other when storing. Use a single layer in a container to prevent squishing or mixing of layers.
Quality Check: Before serving leftovers, ensure the dessert remains chilled to preserve its creamy texture and prevent any melting of layers.
