CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DELIGHT

Ingredients:
1 tube (16 1/2 oz) refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 carton (12 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
3 cups cold milk
1 package (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
Optional: chopped nuts and chocolate curls

Directions: Let cookie dough stand at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften. Press into an ungreased 13X9 in. baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 14-16 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar until smooth. Fold in 1 3/4 cups whipped topping. Spread over crust. In a large bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes; let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Spread over cream cheese layer. Top with remaining whipped topping. Sprinkle with nuts and chocolate curls if desired. Cover and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight until firm.

Zany thought of the day: Ever wonder who the genius was that invented the chocolate chip? It was Ruth Graves Wakefield at the Toll House Inn. Such a simple concept that changed the world! Why can't I invent something like that?
