Black Forest Mousse Dessert

I made this EARLY this morning for my Grandfathers 85th (!!!) Birthday party this evening. While I haven't tried it yet, it looks amazing and super easy.

Adapted from kraftfoods.com recipe.




Ingredients:


1-1/2 cups cold milk
1 pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Chocolate Instant Pudding
1 tub (16 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
16 OREO Cookies, divided
2 cans cherry pie filling

Directions:


POUR milk into large bowl. Add dry pudding mix. Beat with wire whisk 2 min. or until well blended. Gently stir in 1 cup of the whipped topping. Coarsely chop 10 of the cookies; stir into pudding mixture.


SPOON half of the pudding mixture into 1-1/2-qt. serving bowl; cover with 1 cup of the remaining whipped topping. Top with 1 cup of the cherry pie filling, the remaining pudding mixture, remaining whipped topping and remaining cherry pie filling.

CUT remaining 6 cookies in half; arrange on top of dessert. Serve immediately. Or cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. Store leftover dessert in refrigerator.
