1 pkg regular Oreo cookies
1 cup pretzel twists, plus extra to garnish
1/2 cup butter, melted
1 - 4 oz (113 g) box instant chocolate pudding
2 - 8 oz Cool Whip containers
1 - 8 oz (250 g) cream cheese, softened
1 cup icing sugar
caramel ice cream topping (optional)
Crush the oreos and pretzels using a rolling pin. I find using wax cereal bags for this job works well because they can stand up to more pounding than a plastic ziplock bag.
Melt the butter and mix it in with the crushed stuff. Prepare a 13 X 9 baking dish with cooking spray and press the crust into the dish.
Make the pudding as per package directions and refrigerate.
In a mixer cream the cream cheese until smooth, gradually adding the icing sugar. Fold in 1 - 8 oz container of Cool Whip.
Top the oreo layer with the cream cheese mixture. Spread the chocolate pudding on next. If using caramel topping drizzle it on here.
Finish this beauty off with the remaining Cool Whip and garnish with more crushed oreos and pretzels.
Cover and refrigerate.
Looks yummy! I have never tried Cool Whip before but may need to try this recipe.
