To lean even more into the Amish potluck aesthetic, you can swap the chocolate sandwich cookies for plain chocolate wafers or even graham crackers for a milder base. If you prefer a stronger peanut flavor, stir a small pinch of salt into the peanut butter layer to sharpen the sweetness and add depth. For a slightly lighter version, use reduced-fat cream cheese and a light whipped topping; the texture will be a bit softer but still sliceable if well-chilled. You can also play with the pudding layer: chocolate fudge pudding will give you a richer, darker flavor, while a layer of vanilla or butterscotch pudding on top of the chocolate creates a tri-color effect. For entertaining, assemble the lasagna in individual parfait glasses or small jars—press a spoonful of crumbs in the bottom, then layer the peanut butter cream, pudding, and whipped topping for a portable dessert that travels well to picnics and potlucks.
