Ingredients
34 to 36ounceslarge soft-batch bakery-style chocolate chip cookies
8ouncescream cheese,softened to room temperature
¾cuppowdered sugar
1teaspoonvanilla extract
16ounceswhipped topping,thawed
2tablespoonsmini chocolate chips
Instructions
Chop or crumble 2-3 of the cookies. Place in a small bowl and reserve for your garnish. This should yield approximately ¾ cup cookie crumbles. Set aside.
Place a single layer of the soft batch of chocolate chip cookies into the bottom of a 9x13 baking dish to form a chocolate chip cookie base. You may need to break some cookies into pieces to fit and fill any gaps between the full-sized cookies.
In a large mixing bowl, beat together, on medium-high speed with a handheld mixer, the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract for 1-2 minutes or until light and fluffy and no lumps remain.
Fold the thawed whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined. Spread half of this mixture over the first layer of chocolate chip cookies into an even layer. An offset spatula works great for this.
Add a second chocolate chip cookie layer, breaking some of the cookies into smaller pieces to fill any gaps between the whole cookies.
Add the remaining cream cheese mixture to the chocolate chip cookie lasagna and spread it out to make the final creamy cheesecake layer.
Top with the reserved crumbled cookies and the mini chocolate chips.
Cover the chocolate chip lasagna with a piece of plastic wrap and refrigerate for 4 hours or up to overnight before slicing and serving.
Notes
If you're going to serve your Cookie Lasagna right away, you can quickly dip each cookie in a glass of milk before layering. This will make them super soft but might mean your leftovers will become soggy.
The Costco bakery's 36-ounce chocolate chip cookie container is perfect for this recipe, and you'll likely have a few cookies left over for snacking.
If your layers look messy on the outside of your baking pan, wipe them down with clean paper towels as you build your lasagna layers.
After the chill time, you may want to let the cookie lasagna sit out at room temperature for about 30 minutes to soften the layers a touch.
