I think I must have been conditioned at a young age to want dessert right after supper. As soon as I am finished eating my meal, I immediately want something sweet. It doesn’t have to be anything decadent. But it does have to be sweet. We have something for dessert after each meal at my house. It could be a bowl of ice cream, or a cookie, or some pudding or even an orange or banana. It just needs to satisfy my sweet tooth that always seems to pop up right after dinner.

HOW TO MAKE COOKIE MONSTER LAYERED DESSERT:

Set cookie dough out on counter and let come to room temperature to soften (this will make it easier to spread into your baking dish). Preheat oven to 350F degrees. Spray 9 x 13 baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. When dough is soft, spread into baking pan.

This takes a little patience to get it all spread out. Just get it as even as you can. Bake for about 14-16 minutes until golden brown.

Allow to cool completely. Now it’s time to start on the next layer. In a medium bowl, mix together cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.

Now it’s time to make the pudding layer. In a medium bowl, combine chocolate and vanilla puddings with cold milk.Whisk it together until smooth. Let it set for about 2 minutes. It should be soft set but still spreadable.
