- 36 count Oreo cookies, crushed
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 0.5 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 envelopes instant hot cocoa mix (milk chocolate flavor)

Instructions
- In a food processor, crush the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs. Mix in the melted butter and press the mixture into the bottom of a 13 x 9-inch casserole dish. Chill in the fridge or freezer to set while preparing the next layer.
- For the Hot Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse Layer, beat the softened butter, cream cheese, vanilla, and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and instant milk chocolate powder until stiff peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, then fold in the remaining half. Spread this mixture over the chilled crust and set in the fridge or freezer to firm up.
- For the Chocolate Pudding Layer, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until thickened. Stir in the mini marshmallows and spread this over the hot chocolate mousse layer. Chill in the fridge or freezer to set.
- Once the pudding layer is set, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the pudding layer and refrigerate for a few hours or overnight.
- Before serving, top with mini marshmallows and drizzle with melted chocolate, Nutella, or chocolate topping.
- Store any leftovers in the fridge.
