Instructions

Prepare the Crust: Mix the crushed Oreos with the melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish to form an even crust. Place in the refrigerator for 10 minutes to set.
Make the Peanut Butter Layer: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the peanut butter and blend thoroughly. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping to retain the light texture. Spread this peanut butter mixture evenly over the chilled Oreo crust layer.
Prepare the Chocolate Pudding Layer: In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mixes with 3 cups of cold milk until the pudding thickens, about 2 minutes. Spread this chocolate pudding evenly over the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate the dish for another 10 minutes to help set the layers before proceeding.
Top with Whipped Cream: Spread 2 cups of whipped topping uniformly over the chocolate pudding layer to create a smooth, fluffy top layer.
Garnish & Chill: Sprinkle the crushed peanut butter cups over the whipped topping layer. Drizzle melted peanut butter over the entire top for added flavor and a decorative finish.
Chill & Serve: Place the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, allowing all layers to fully set and flavors to meld. Slice into 12 servings, and enjoy this rich, layered treat!

Notes

Use full-fat cream cheese for the best texture and flavor in the peanut butter layer.
The dessert should be kept refrigerated until serving to maintain the structure and freshness.
You can substitute whipped topping with homemade whipped cream if preferred.
For a nut-free version, replace peanut butter with sunflower seed butter and omit peanut butter cups garnish.
