Ingredients:

1 package (15 oz) Oreo cookies (divided into two parts)
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
2 cups whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
2 cups heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cups milk
Optional: Chocolate syrup or melted chocolate for garnish

Instructions:

Prepare the Oreo crust:
- Crush 1 1/2 cups of Oreo cookies (you can use a food processor or place them in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin).
- In a bowl, mix the crushed Oreos with the melted butter until combined.
- Press the Oreo mixture into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to form the crust. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.
Make the cream cheese layer:
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Fold in 1 cup of whipped topping and mix until well combined.
- Spread this cream cheese mixture evenly over the Oreo crust.
Make the pudding layer:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until thickened (about 2 minutes).
- Fold in the remaining 1 cup of whipped topping until smooth.
- Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the cream cheese layer.
Top with whipped cream:
- Spread the remaining whipped topping evenly over the pudding layer.
- Crush the remaining Oreo cookies and sprinkle them on top of the whipped topping.
Chill and serve:
- Refrigerate the Oreo lasagna for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld together.
- Before serving, drizzle with chocolate syrup or melted chocolate for extra indulgence.
Serve: Slice into squares and enjoy the delicious layers of Oreo goodness!

Tips:

For extra flavor: Add a layer of mini chocolate chips or a sprinkle of cocoa powder between the layers for added texture and flavor.
Make it in advance: This dessert is perfect for making ahead of time. It needs at least 4 hours of chilling time, but overnight is best.
Storage: Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days.
