01 -
Prepare cake according to the package instructions and bake. Once baked, remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to poke holes across the surface. Heat the hot fudge in a microwave until pourable, then evenly distribute it over the cake, allowing it to seep into the holes. Cool completely.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the chocolate pudding mix and milk. Before the pudding fully sets, pour it over the cooled cake, ensuring even coverage. Refrigerate the cake for about 20 minutes to chill.

In another medium bowl, whisk together the second package of pudding mix and milk. Refrigerate for about 10 minutes or until fully set. Fold the thawed cool whip into the pudding, then mix in about ¾ of the crushed Oreo cookies. Spread this topping evenly over the chilled cake. Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos on top.
