Crust
- 24 oatmeal cream pie sandwich cookies (2 boxes)
Cheesecake Filling
- 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 (3 oz) package instant cheesecake pudding mix
- 3/4 cup whole milk
- 16 oz Cool Whip
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Prepare the Dish: Lightly grease a 9×13-inch dish with butter to prevent sticking.
- Create the Crust: Line the bottom of the dish with whole oatmeal cream pie sandwiches, pressing them together with your hands to form a solid crust without gaps. Use broken pieces of additional cookies to fill any spaces.
- Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add sugar, instant cheesecake pudding mix, and milk. Stir the mixture until it thickens, approximately 1-2 minutes.
- Fold in Cool Whip: Gently fold in the Cool Whip just until combined to maintain a light and airy texture. Be careful not to overmix.
- Assemble the Cheesecake: Transfer the cheesecake filling onto the crust in the baking dish, spreading it evenly.
- Add Topping: Crumble the remaining oatmeal cream pie sandwiches on top of the cheesecake layer for added texture and flavor.
- Chill to Set: Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 5-6 hours or overnight to allow the cheesecake to set firmly.
- Serve: Cut into squares and serve chilled for a refreshing and indulgent dessert.
