Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine crushed Oreo cookies and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to form a crust. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and mix well. Fold in half of the whipped topping. Spread evenly over the crust.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until thickened. Spread pudding over the cream cheese layer.
Top with remaining whipped topping and smooth evenly.
Drizzle caramel sauce over the top and sprinkle with chopped pecans and mini chocolate chips if using.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving for best results.

Notes

You can use store-bought caramel sauce or make your own for a richer flavor.
Chill overnight for a firmer dessert with well-defined layers.
