Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 25 pieces chocolate sandwich cookies
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup peanut butter
- 16 ounces whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
- 3.9 ounces instant chocolate pudding mix
- 2 cups cold milk
- 4 pieces peanut butter cups, chopped (optional for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Prepare the crust: Place the chocolate sandwich cookies in a food processor and pulse until they are fine crumbs. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add melted butter, stirring until the mixture is evenly combined.
Press the cookie mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan to form an even crust. Place the pan in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the layers.
In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and peanut butter together using a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. Fold in half of the thawed whipped topping to lighten the mixture.
Spread the peanut butter-cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled crust. Place the pan back in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the next layer.
In a second medium mixing bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and cold milk for 2-3 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Spread the pudding evenly over the peanut butter layer.
Top the pudding layer with the remaining whipped topping, spreading it evenly over the top.
If desired, drizzle the top with chocolate syrup and sprinkle chopped peanut butter cups for added garnish and presentation.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours (preferably overnight) to allow the layers to set and the flavors to meld together.
Slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy your Peanut Butter Striped Delight!
