Ingredients

Crust

  • 36 Oreo cookies
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup whipped topping (Cool Whip)
  • Purple food coloring, a few drops

Pudding Layer

  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • Orange food coloring, a few drops

Whipped Topping Layer

  • 2 cups whipped topping (Cool Whip)
  • Green food coloring, a few drops

Garnish

  • Halloween-themed sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor to form the base for your dessert.
  2. Form the Crust: Mix the Oreo crumbs with melted butter thoroughly, then press firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish, creating an even layer.
  3. Make the Cream Cheese Layer: Beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  4. Sweeten the Cream Cheese: Add powdered sugar to the cream cheese and mix well to combine evenly.
  5. Incorporate Whipped Topping and Color: Gently fold in the whipped topping and a few drops of purple food coloring until the mixture is uniform in color.
  6. Spread Over Crust: Evenly spread the purple cream cheese mixture over the Oreo crust layer.
  7. Prepare the Pudding Layer: Whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with cold milk until it thickens to a creamy consistency.
  8. Add Color to Pudding: Mix in a few drops of orange food coloring, ensuring the color is evenly distributed throughout the pudding.
  9. Layer the Pudding: Spread the orange pudding mixture evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  10. Prepare the Whipped Topping Layer: Combine the whipped topping with green food coloring, mixing until the color is consistent.
  11. Top the Pudding: Spread the green whipped topping mixture in an even layer over the pudding.
  12. Add the Garnish: Sprinkle Halloween-themed sprinkles evenly on top of the green whipped topping layer for a festive look.
  13. Chill and Set: Refrigerate the assembled dessert for at least 4 hours to allow all layers to set properly.
  14. Serve: Cut into 12 squares and serve chilled for a delightful Halloween treat.

Notes

  • You can substitute store-bought whipped topping with homemade whipped cream if preferred.
  • For a richer crust, you can use chocolate sandwich cookies with cream filling or add a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
  • Adjust the amount of food coloring according to your desired intensity of colors.
  • Make sure to chill the dessert long enough for clean slicing and best flavor layering.
  • This dessert can be prepared a day ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
