Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by finely crushing the entire package of Oreos and set aside about ½ cup for later use as a topping.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened butter, powdered sugar, and softened cream cheese. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until well combined. Allow it to set for about 2 minutes and gently fold in the Cool Whip.
  4. Slowly spoon the cream cheese mixture into the pudding bowl and gently stir until well combined.
  5. Layer your dessert cups by spooning a generous amount of the pudding mixture into each cup, followed by a layer of crushed Oreos. Repeat this process until you reach the top, finishing with pudding.
  6. Sprinkle the reserved crushed Oreos over the top layer of pudding and add Easter Bunny Peeps and assorted Easter egg candies for decoration.
  7. Cover the cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
