How to Make Cookie Lasagna

Ingredients:

34 to 36 ounces large soft-batch bakery-style chocolate chip cookies
8 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature
¾ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
16 ounces whipped topping, thawed
2 tablespoons mini chocolate chips

Directions:

First, chop or crumble 2-3 of the cookies and place them in a small bowl for garnish. You should have about ¾ cup of cookie crumbles. Set them aside.
Next, take a 9×13 baking dish and lay a single layer of chocolate chip cookies on the bottom. You may need to break some cookies into smaller pieces to fill any gaps.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together on medium-high speed with a handheld mixer for 1-2 minutes. You want it to be light and fluffy with no lumps.
Fold the thawed whipped topping into this cream cheese mixture until everything is well combined. Then, spread half of this mixture over the first layer of cookies.
Add a second layer of chocolate chip cookies on top, breaking them as needed to cover the entire layer.
Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture on top of the second cookie layer to create the final layer.
Finally, sprinkle the reserved cookie crumbles and mini chocolate chips on top.
Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to let it set before slicing and serving.
