Melissa’s Kitchen: Oreo chocolate pudding parfaits

INGREDIENTS:

-2 boxes of chocolate instant pudding mix (3.4 oz each)
-2 1/2 cups milk
-1 package of Oreo cookies (regular size)
-2 oz butter melted
-1 tub of whipped topping (16 oz.)
-1 package of cream cheese softened (8 oz.)
-1 cup powdered sugar

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Make the chocolate pudding per instructions on the box. Then put it in the refrigerator for about 5 minutes, until it sets.
2. Put Oreo cookies in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin. Set aside about a half cup for sprinkling on top.
3. Take the remaining crushed cookies and mix with the melted butter. Divide into 8 jars or glasses.
4. Press the crushed cookies into the bottom of the jars (like an Oreo crust). A shot glass works well for pressing down.
5. Mix the whipped topping, cream cheese and powdered sugar with a hand mixer until blended creamy.
6. Put a dollop of the whipped mix on top of the pressed cookie crumbs in each glass. Make it look smooth.
7. Add the chocolate pudding for the next layer.
8. Place the remaining whipped topping into each jar and then sprinkle the remaining cookie crumbs on top.
9. Add 1 Oreo cookie on top, for extra garnish
10. Refrigerate until ready to eat.
