Optional: Chopped nuts, chocolate curls and miniature semisweet chocolate chips
Directions
Let cookie dough stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften. Press into an ungreased 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° until golden brown, 14-16 minutes. Cool on a wire rack.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in 1-3/4 cups whipped topping. Spread over crust.
In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes. Spread over cream cheese layer. Top with remaining whipped topping. Sprinkle with nuts and chocolate curls if desired.
Cover and refrigerate until firm, 8 hours or overnight.
Test Kitchen Tips
You've got to love how no-fuss this is, but if you have a favorite homemade cookie recipe and are feeling ambitious, by all means substitute it for the prepared dough.
Be sure to beat or whisk your pudding for a full 2 minutes to thicken it. A hand mixer on medium speed is a good choice, but hand whisking and a little elbow grease work, too.

I cooked at 350' for 15 min. I used a glass casserole. I could have lowered the temp. The crust turned out perfect. I mixed the pudding for 2 minutes. I used the saladshooter to grate a candy bar. I have substituted pistashio pudding for the chocolate. It was a hit as well. This is an all time favorite.

The pudding part is very good, but my family didn’t like the cookie crust. It gets hard and difficult to cut. Next time I make this, I’m going to use a graham cracker crust.

Thinking of changing the crust and making it with a raspberry filling instead...anyone try that?

What an easy and delicious recipe! I used sugar free pudding mixes (1.4 ounce size) and used "lite" whipped topping on top .... I made it for my husband's birthday and everyone loved it..... and asked for the recipe! I will surely make this again .... 5 stars for sure!

Richer than rat poison - lol. But, so good, Used my own chocolate chip cookie dough and topped with chopped up English toffee. I'll make it again when I come out of my coma.
