Choco Mint Layer Treat (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Oreo Base

01 - 36 Oreo sandwich cookies
02 - 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter

→ Minty Cheese Mixture

03 - 1/2 cup softened unsalted butter
04 - 12 oz softened cream cheese
05 - 1 1/2 cups confectioners' sugar
06 - 1 teaspoon vanilla flavoring
07 - 1 teaspoon mint flavoring
08 - 1 1/2 cups firm whipped topping
09 - 1/2 cup smashed candy canes

→ Chocolate Middle

10 - 2 boxes (3.9 oz each) quick-set chocolate pudding mix
11 - 2 3/4 cups full-fat milk

→ Finishing Layer

12 - 2 1/2 cups whipped cream topping
13 - 1/4 cup broken candy canes

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Blitz the whole Oreos with filling in your food processor. Mix in the melted butter until everything looks damp. Pack this mix down firmly into a 9 x 13-inch pan. Stick it in your fridge or freezer to harden.
02 - Put your candy canes in a sealed plastic bag. Smash them into small chunks with your rolling pin.
03 - Mix the soft butter, cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and both flavorings until creamy. Gently add the whipped topping and make sure it's all mixed well. Toss in the candy cane bits. Spread this over your cold cookie base and pop back in the freezer for 10-15 minutes.
04 - Stir two boxes of chocolate pudding with the milk until it gets thick. Smooth this over your minty cheese layer. Let it sit in the fridge until it firms up.
05 - Cover everything with 2 1/2 cups of whipped topping. Let your dessert chill at least 5 hours, but leaving it overnight works better. Scatter candy cane pieces on top right before you serve it.
