Ingredients
  

For the Cookie Crust

  • 3 cups crushed sugar cookies
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1/4 cup Christmas sprinkles

For the Cheesecake Cream

  • 16 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups whipped topping

For the Strawberry Layer

  • 21 oz strawberry pie filling one can

For the Vanilla Pudding Layer

  • 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix one package
  • 1 1/2 cups cold whole milk
  • 1 cup whipped topping

For the Christmas Topping

  • 2 cups whipped topping
  • 1 cup crushed sugar cookies
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
  • 1/4 cup Christmas sprinkles
  • 1/4 cup red and green candy-coated chocolates

Instructions
 

  • Lightly grease a 9x13-inch rectangular glass baking dish. Set it aside while you prepare the crust.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed sugar cookies, melted unsalted butter, and Christmas sprinkles. Stir until the crumbs are evenly coated with butter. The mixture should resemble wet sand.
  • Transfer the cookie mixture to the prepared baking dish. Press it firmly across the bottom to form an even crust. Use the bottom of a flat measuring cup to pack it down neatly.
  • Refrigerate the crust for 15 minutes. This helps the butter set and prevents the crust from crumbling when you add the next layer.
  • While the crust chills, beat the softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl until smooth and fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated. Gently fold in 2 cups of whipped topping until the cheesecake cream is light and airy.
  • Spread half of the prepared cheesecake cream evenly over the chilled cookie crust. Reach all the way to the edges so every bite has that tangy layer.
  • Spoon the strawberry pie filling over the first cheesecake layer. Gently spread it without disturbing the layer underneath. Refrigerate for 20 minutes to let the layers settle.
  • Remove the dish from the refrigerator and spread the remaining cheesecake cream over the strawberry filling. Smooth the surface evenly with a spatula.
  • In another mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold whole milk for about 2 minutes. Let the pudding thicken for 5 minutes, then gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping.
  • Spread the prepared vanilla pudding mixture evenly over the remaining cheesecake cream.
  • Spread 2 cups of whipped topping over the pudding layer. This final fluffy layer gives the dessert a snowy finish.
  • Sprinkle the crushed sugar cookies, white chocolate chips, Christmas sprinkles, and red and green candy-coated chocolates evenly over the surface.
  • Cover the baking dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. All the layers need time to firm up.
  • Once completely chilled, slice into individual portions and serve cold. Keep any remaining dessert covered and refrigerated.

Notes

Optional substitutions include gluten-free sugar cookies, cherry or raspberry pie filling, reduced-fat cream cheese, sugar-free pudding mix, and light whipped topping. Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between slices for neat layers.
