Instructions
In a large bowl, whisk together the instant pudding and the milk for 2 minutes or until beginning to thicken. Let stand for 5 minutes.
Beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar on medium speed until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes.
Using a rubber spatula, fold the cream cheese mixture into the chocolate pudding.
Then fold in the Cool Whip (or whipped cream) until completely combined.
You can layer the dessert a number of ways, we used individual cups but you can use a trifle dish or rectangular baking dish.
Layer the dessert with alternating layers of cookie crumbs and pudding mixture, starting and ending with the crushed cookies.
Refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight before serving.
Decorate with gummy worms, sprinkles and zombie hands before serving, if desired.
