Oreo Cookie Cake

This is one of those cakes that I am always asked to bring for a party, especially a picnic. It always seems that everybody has room for it!

• Ready In: 30 mins
• Serves: 12-15

Ingredients

• 1 (16 ounce) package  Oreo cookies
• 1⁄2 cup butter or 1⁄2 cup margarine, melted
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
• 1 (12 ounce) container Cool Whip
• 1 (3 1/2ounce) box instant chocolate pudding mix
• 1 (3 1/2ounce) box instant vanilla pudding
• 4  cups milk

Directions

1. Crush Oreos finely in food processor (or by hand) and press crumbs firmly into a 9 x 13 pan.
2. Pour melted butter or margarine evenly over crumbs.
3. Beat cream cheese in a medium bowl and then add 1/2 of Cool Whip.
4. Beat together and then spread evenly over cookie crust.
5. Prepare chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups milk and pour over the cream cheese layer. Let set 5 minutes in refrigerator.
6. While mixture is setting, prepare vanilla pudding mix with 2 cups milk and then pour over chocolate pudding and spread evenly.
7. Place cake in refrigerator to set at least 10 minutes, then spread remaining Cool Whip over the top.
8. Note: I refrigerate the cake after I prepare each layer and let it sit for 5 minutes or so. It helps the layers to set so that they don't mix when you put the next layer on.
