No Bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Dessert – With the Easter holiday quickly approaching this recipe pops to mind for both sake of ease and of course YUM. Often I am asked what desserts can be made ahead for someone to take to another home. This recipe fits the bill perfectly! This is also a recipe that kids will love to help with too. Every time I make this for a crowd I hope for leftovers to take home and there are rarely any!
Ingredients:
- 3 cups prebaked chocolate chip cookies (I use storebought)
- 4 tablespoons butter, melted
- 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
- Large box instant chocolate pudding (plus milk called for on box less ½ cup)
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- ¼ cup whole milk
- 8 ounces extra creamy Cool Whip
Directions
Roughly crumble the cookies in the bottom of a serving bowl. Pour melted butter over the top.
In a mixing bowl add cream cheese, powdered sugar and milk. Mix until smooth. Pour on top of cookies.
Make chocolate pudding according to package directions but reduce the milk by ½ cup. Spread over cream cheese mixture.
Top with Cool Whip. Enjoy!
