How to Make 4-Ingredient Chocolate Lasagna
Ingredients
- 36 chocolate sandwich cookies, crushed
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 4 cups prepared chocolate pudding (8 snack cups)
- 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping
Directions
- Set aside about 1 cup of the crushed chocolate sandwich cookies for the top.
- Press the remaining crushed cookies firmly into the bottom of an 8×8-inch or 9×9-inch glass dish to create an even crust.
- In a medium bowl, stir the softened cream cheese until smooth. Then, fold in about half of the whipped topping until the mixture is light and creamy.
- Gently spread this cream cheese mixture over the cookie crust in an even layer.
- Spoon the prepared chocolate pudding over the cream cheese layer and spread it carefully to cover the top without mixing the layers.
- Spread the remaining whipped topping over the pudding layer, making sure to reach the edges.
- Sprinkle the reserved cookie crumbs over the top.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until well chilled and set.
- Slice into squares and serve cold.
For an extra chocolatey touch, consider adding mini chocolate chips between the pudding and whipped topping layers, or sprinkle them on top just before serving. If you want neat slices, chill your dessert well and wipe your knife between cuts. For a pretty presentation, add a small dollop of whipped topping on each piece just before serving.
