Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 2025 Oreo cookies
  • 6 tablespoons butter, melted

Chocolate Pudding Layer

  • 1 package chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 cup milk (use 1/2 cup for pudding preparation)
  • 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 (amount not specified, estimated about 1/2 cup)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Crush 20-25 Oreo cookies finely and mix them thoroughly with 6 tablespoons of melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8×8-inch Pyrex dish to form an even crust. Place the dish in the freezer for 10 minutes to allow the crust to set.
  2. Make the Chocolate Pudding Layer: Prepare the chocolate pudding mix by combining it with 1/2 cup of milk instead of the full amount required. Once the pudding is set, gently fold in 1/2 cup of Cool Whip until well combined. Spread this creamy chocolate layer evenly over the chilled Oreo crust. Return the dish to the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm up the layer.
  3. Create the Raspberry Layer: In a mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1/2 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth. Carefully fold in 1/2 cup raspberries and 1 cup of Cool Whip, ensuring the mixture remains light and airy. Spread this mixture evenly over the chocolate pudding layer.
  4. Assemble the Topping: Top the raspberry layer with the remaining Cool Whip, spreading it smoothly across the surface. Decorate with additional raspberries or chocolate shavings if desired.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled dessert for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible, to allow all layers to set and the flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh raspberries, but frozen can be used after thawing and draining excess moisture.
  • Press the Oreo crust firmly to ensure it holds together when cut.
  • You can decorate the top with extra raspberries or chocolate shavings for an appealing presentation.
  • This dessert requires refrigeration time to set properly, so prepare it at least 4 hours in advance.
  • Use full-fat Cool Whip for a creamier texture.
