Description

This No-Bake Chocolate Chip Cookie Delight is a dreamy, layered dessert that’s irresistibly creamy, loaded with chocolate chips, and incredibly simple to prepareโ€”no oven required! Perfect for chocolate lovers and anyone seeking an easy, crowd-pleasing treat for potlucks, parties, or weeknight cravings.


Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Cookie Layer

  • 2 (7-ounce) packages chocolate chip cookies (about 3036 cookies)
  • 1 cup milk (for dipping cookies)

For the Creamy Filling

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)

For Topping

  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
  • Optional: additional whipped topping, for garnish
  • Optional: chocolate or caramel sauce, for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookie Layer: Briefly dip each chocolate chip cookie into the milkโ€”just a second or two, so they’re softened but not soggy. Arrange a single layer of dipped cookies in the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. Make the Creamy Filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until light and fluffy. Gently fold in the whipped topping until evenly combined.
  3. Layer the Dessert: Spread half of the creamy filling over the first layer of cookies, smoothing it into an even layer. Add another layer of dipped cookies on top of the filling, using up any remaining cookies. Spread the rest of the creamy filling over the second cookie layer.
  4. Add the Finishing Touches: Sprinkle mini chocolate chips evenly over the top. If desired, dollop or pipe more whipped topping and drizzle with chocolate or caramel sauce for extra flair.
  5. Chill and Serve: Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is even better!) to allow the cookies to soften and the layers to set. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!

Notes

  • For best results, use a dry, crisp store-bought cookieโ€”theyโ€™ll soften perfectly in the fridge.
  • Switch up the flavors by using different cookiesโ€”try peanut butter or double chocolate chip for a twist.
  • Let the dessert chill fully for clean, neat slices.
  • This can be assembled a day in advance and kept refrigerated until serving.
  • For a lighter version, use reduced-fat cream cheese and light whipped topping.
