    Add heavy whipping cream and 1/2 cup confectioner's sugar to a large bowl. Whip on high speed until soft peaks form. Place marshmallow fluff in a microwave-safe bowl, and microwave until just melted, about 10 seconds. Beat marshmallow fluff into whipped cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

    Remove Oreo crust from the refrigerator. Layer on cream cheese-candy cane mixture, then cheesecake pudding, and finally top with remaining whipped topping. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours. Immediately before serving, sprinkle on remaining half of crushed candy canes (if done ahead, candy canes will bleed color and melt into the topping).
