Recipe: Chocolate Lasagna

Ingredients:

For the Chocolate Cookie Crust:

• 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (chocolate sandwich cookies work well)
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Chocolate Filling:

• 1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 2 tablespoons cold milk
• 1 (16-ounce) container whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
• 2 (3.9-ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
• 3 1/4 cups cold milk
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

For the Topping:

• 2 cups whipped topping (additional)
• Chocolate shavings or chocolate chips for garnish (optional)

Instructions:

For the Chocolate Cookie Crust:

1. In a food processor, pulse the chocolate cookies until they become fine crumbs.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with the melted butter until well combined.
3. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish to form an even crust. Use the back of a spoon to press it firmly.
4. Place the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

For the Chocolate Filling:

1. In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
2. Add the granulated sugar and 2 tablespoons of cold milk, and mix until well combined.
3. Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and fluffy.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix, 3 1/4 cups of cold milk, and vanilla extract until it thickens, about 2 minutes.
5. Add the chocolate pudding to the cream cheese mixture and fold it in until everything is well incorporated.

Assembling the Chocolate Lasagna:

1. Remove the crust from the refrigerator and spread the chocolate filling evenly over it.
2. Carefully spread the additional 2 cups of whipped topping over the chocolate filling, creating a top layer.
3. If desired, garnish with chocolate shavings or chocolate chips for added texture and presentation.

Chilling:

1. Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate the Chocolate Lasagna for at least 4 hours or until it's set.
2. For best results, let it chill overnight to allow the flavors to meld.

Serving:

1. Slice and serve the Chocolate Lasagna, savoring the layers of chocolatey goodness.

Preparation time: Approximately 30 minutes Chilling time: Minimum 4 hours (or overnight for best results) Servings: 12-16
