Ingredients
Scale
- 36 Oreo cookies, ground
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 8 oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 5 (0.73 oz.) envelopes of instant hot cocoa mix (milk chocolate flavor)
- 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream
- 2 (3.8 oz.) chocolate instant pudding mix
- 2 ¾ cups milk
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 ¼ cups heavy whipping cream (or 2 ½ cups whipped cream)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- Chocolate topping or Nutella for serving
Instructions
- Crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
- Combine the Oreo crumbs with the melted butter until evenly moistened. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9 × 13-inch baking dish to form an even crust.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened butter and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla. Beat until combined.
- Add the five envelopes of milk chocolate hot cocoa mix and mix until evenly incorporated.
- In a separate chilled bowl, whip 1 ½ cups heavy whipping cream until fluffy. Gently fold it into the hot cocoa cream cheese mixture.
- Spread the hot cocoa filling evenly over the Oreo crust.
- In another bowl, whisk the chocolate instant pudding mixes with the milk according to the package directions until thickened.
- Stir in 1 cup mini marshmallows.
- Spread the chocolate pudding mixture evenly over the hot cocoa layer.
- Beat the remaining 1 ¼ cups heavy whipping cream with 2 tablespoons powdered sugar until fluffy and suitable for spreading. Alternatively, use 2 ½ cups prepared whipped cream.
- Spread the whipped cream evenly over the chocolate pudding layer.
- Sprinkle the remaining 2 cups mini marshmallows over the top.
- Cover and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled and set enough to slice.
- Cut into squares and serve with chocolate topping or Nutella if desired.
Notes
- Allow the cream cheese and butter to soften before preparing the filling to prevent lumps.
- Keep the heavy whipping cream cold for easier whipping and better texture.
- Refrigerate thoroughly before slicing for cleaner layers. Add chocolate topping or Nutella just before serving.
