A delightful no-bake dessert featuring layers of creamy pudding and cookie crumble.
Crush the cookies into fine crumbs and set aside.
Use a food processor for a finer texture, or place the cookies in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and milk until smooth. Let it sit for a few minutes to thicken.
Ensure the milk is cold for the pudding to set properly.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and butter until creamy.
Soften the cream cheese beforehand for easier mixing.
Fold the cream cheese mixture into the pudding mixture until well combined.
Use a gentle folding motion to maintain the creamy texture.
Layer half of the cookie crumbs in the bottom of the serving dish.
Press the crumbs lightly to create an even layer.
Spread the pudding mixture over the cookie layer evenly.
Use a spatula to smooth the surface for an even layer.
Top with the remaining cookie crumbs.
Sprinkle the crumbs evenly for a neat presentation.
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Chilling allows the flavors to meld together for a better taste.
