Whisk together instant chocolate pudding and milk in a large bowl until set.
In a second bowl, cream together the cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until smooth.

Add half of the crushed OREOs in the bottom of a 9×11 baking dish.
Pour melted butter evenly over the crushed cookies and stir to combine. Press the crushed cookies into the bottom of the pan in a single layer of OREOS to make an OREO crust.
Cover the crushed cookie crust with the cream cheese mixture and spread to cover the cookies evenly and completely.
Top the cream cheese mixture by spreading the chocolate pudding evenly over it.
In a second medium bowl, combine green food coloring and the second container of whipped topping.
Spread the green whipped topping evenly over the pudding.Sprinkle with the remaining crushed Oreos.

Can Heavenly Mint OREO Dessert be made ahead of time?
This dessert consists of layers of chocolate, mint, and Oreo cookie crumbs. It can be made up to two days in advance and stored in the refrigerator until it is ready to be served.
First, the dessert will need to be refrigerated for at least an hour before serving, so plan accordingly.
Second, the whipped topping will begin to deflate after a few hours, so it’s best to wait to add it just before serving.
Finally, the OREOs will soften slightly as they soak in the minty syrup, so if you prefer a crunchier cookie, you may want to add them just before serving as well.
With these considerations in mind, you can easily make Heavenly Mint OREO Dessert ahead of time and enjoy a refreshing and easy-to-make treat.

Do I have to bake the Mint Oreo Crust?
Nope, there is no baking to this no bake dessert recipe. It’s a crowd favorite for the layers of mint flavor, and also the ease. The easiest way to make the crust is to follow the simple directions on the recipe card.
