Mini Chocolate Oreo Pudding “Pies”

This quick dessert takes pudding to a new level of decadence by making it a little more like a pie featuring cookie crumbs, reminiscent of a chocolate crumb crust, and a touch of whipped topping. Feel free to make this with any flavor pudding. You can even sub in an all-natural pudding, though that will add calories (about 1/3 cup of sugar-free pudding has only 60 calories, while about 1/3 cup of naturally sweetened pudding has 90 calories). Always be sure to read labels. Numerous friends have reported, after enjoying this recipe, that they love it as is . . . their husbands usually “require” more Cool Whip. If you’re making it for your guy or you are a guy, you may want to add a bit more.

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Divide the crushed cookies evenly among 4 (about 3 1/2-inch-diameter) ramekins or glass bowls. Spread the crumbs in an even layer in the bottom of each ramekin. Spoon one pudding cup over each of the cookie “crusts.” Top each with 1 tablespoon whipped topping. Serve immediately.
