Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 containers Cool Whip
- 2 cups whole milk
- 2 sleeves (approximately 20-22 cookies) Oreo cookies, crushed
Supporting Ingredients:
- 1 box chocolate pudding mix
Garnish/Topping:
- Crushed Oreo cookies (optional, additional to those in the main recipe)
Instructions
- Whisk the chocolate pudding mix with whole milk (473 milliliters or 16 fluid ounces) precisely following the package instructions until smooth and fully incorporated.
- Gently fold both 8-ounce (226 grams) containers of Cool Whip into the prepared pudding mixture, creating a light and creamy texture.
- Crush one sleeve of Oreo cookies into fine, uniform crumbs using a rolling pin or food processor, then thoroughly blend into the pudding mixture until evenly distributed.
- Transfer the combined pudding, Cool Whip, and Oreo crumb mixture into a 9-inch pie dish, spreading it evenly with a spatula to create a consistent layer.
- Sprinkle the second sleeve of crushed Oreo cookies over the top, ensuring complete coverage for maximum crunch and visual appeal.
- Carefully place the pie in the refrigerator and allow it to set for a minimum of 2 hours, which will help the dessert firm up and develop a rich, cohesive texture.
- After chilling, slice the mud pie into wedges using a sharp knife, serving each portion on individual dessert plates to showcase the layers and indulgent composition.
Notes
- Whip up this no-bake dessert in just 15 minutes with minimal cooking skills required.
- Crush Oreos thoroughly for the perfect texture balance between creamy pudding and crunchy cookies.
- Ensure whole milk is cold for the best pudding consistency and smoother mixing.
- Chill the pie for at least 2 hours to allow flavors to meld and achieve the ideal firm yet creamy texture.
- Top with extra crushed Oreos just before serving to maintain the cookies’ crisp crunch.
- Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, though it rarely lasts that long with hungry dessert lovers around.
