Notes
1. If the nabisco cookies are not available, you can easily make your own or substitute with Oreo Thins
(the cream filling in the oreos will cause a different texture, but will still be a pleasant taste.)
2. It is OK to substitute plain vanilla pudding mix for the french vanilla.
3. This is a delicious dessert with an addicting texture! The cookies become soft and cake-like as they sit!
The chocolate is rich and a perfect compliment for the creaminess of the whipped cream and the spice of the pumpkin.
4. You could make this dessert up to 2 days in advance if needed!
