Chocolate Lasagna

A decadent no-bake dessert featuring layers of crushed Oreo cookies, cream cheese, chocolate and vanilla pudding, and Cool Whip for a delightfully rich treat that’s perfect for chocolate lovers.

 

  • Total Time: 4 hours 30 minutes (including chilling time)
  • Yield: 12 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 14.3 ounces Oreo cookies (regular, not double stuffed)
  • ½ cup margarine or butter, melted
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 16 ounces Cool Whip, divided in half
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 5.1 ounces instant vanilla pudding
  • 5.1 ounces instant chocolate pudding
  • 3 cups milk
  • Chocolate syrup
  • Chocolate curls or your favorite chocolate candy for garnish (optional)

 

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookie Base: Add whole Oreos (cream centers included) to a food processor and pulse until evenly crumbled. Set aside one cup of crushed Oreos for the topping. Mix the remaining crushed Oreo cookie crumbs with half a cup of melted butter or margarine. Press this mixture into an even layer in the bottom of a 9×13 pan. Place in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the next layer.
  2. Create the Cream Cheese Layer: Using an electric mixer, combine eight ounces of cream cheese, eight ounces of Cool Whip, and one cup of powdered sugar until smooth and well-incorporated. Carefully spread this cream cheese mixture over the chilled chocolate cookie crust layer. Return the pan to the refrigerator to chill while preparing the pudding layer.
  3. Mix the Pudding Layer: In a large bowl, combine both packages of instant pudding (vanilla and chocolate) with three cups of cold milk. Whisk until the mixture begins to thicken, about 2 minutes. Spread this pudding mixture evenly on top of the cream cheese layer, creating your third delicious layer.
  4. Add the Final Layers: Spread the remaining 8 ounces of Cool Whip over the pudding layer in an even coating. Sprinkle the reserved cup of crumbled Oreos over the top. Finish by drizzling a light layer of chocolate syrup across the entire dessert. If desired, garnish with chocolate curls or small pieces of your favorite chocolate candy.
  5. Chill Before Serving: Refrigerate the chocolate lasagna for at least 4 hours before serving to allow all layers to set properly and flavors to meld together. This dessert is best when thoroughly chilled.

 

Notes

  • For best results, allow the cream cheese to soften at room temperature before mixing to prevent lumps.
  • The dessert can be made up to 24 hours in advance for even better flavor.
  • Using a clear glass dish allows you to showcase the beautiful layers.
  • For a firmer texture, you can freeze the dessert for 30 minutes before serving.
  • A chocolate graham cracker crust can be substituted for the Oreo base if preferred.
