Ingredients
  

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs (such as Oreos)
  • 1/4 cup butter (melted)

For the Orange Layer:

  • 8 ounce cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup whipped topping
  • orange food coloring

For the Purple Layer:

  • 3.4 ounce instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 3/4 cups cold milk
  • purple food coloring

For the Green Layer:

  • 3.4 ounce instant pistachio pudding mix
  • 1 3/4 cups cold milk
  • green food coloring

For the Topping:

  • 1 cup whipped topping such as Cool Whip
  • Halloween-themed sprinkles

Instructions
 

For the Crust:

  • In a medium mixing bowl, combine chocolate cookie crumbs and melted butter, stirring until the crumbs are fully moistened.
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish, then chill in the refrigerator while preparing the other layers of the dessert.

For the Orange Layer:

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping until incorporated.
  • Add a few drops of orange food coloring and mix until evenly colored. Add more drops as needed, until your desired hue is achieved.
  • Spread this orange cream evenly over the chilled crust, then return the pan to the fridge.

For the Purple Layer:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until thickened.
  • Add purple food coloring and mix until evenly colored and your desired hue is achieved.
  • Spread the purple layer over the orange layer, then return the pan to the fridge.

For the Green Layer:

  • In another medium bowl, whisk together the pistachio pudding mix and cold milk until thickened.
  • Add green food coloring and mix until evenly colored to your desired hue.
  • Spread the green layer over the purple layer.

For the Topping:

  • Spread the remaining whipped topping over the green layer.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the layers to set. Just prior to serving, decorate the top layer of whipped topping with Halloween-themed sprinkles.
  • Cut into squares and serve cold.

Notes

  • Keep this dessert chilled until ready to serve. Leftovers should be covered and refrigerated for up to 3-5 days.
  • Wait to add the sprinkles until just before serving, to prevent the colors from "bleeding" into the whipped topping.
