Preparation
  1. Combine crushed cookies and melted butter, then press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish to form the crust.

  3. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cookie crust.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together instant vanilla pudding mixes with 3 cups cold milk for 2 minutes until thickened.

  8. Cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before slicing and serving.

Notes
