Ingredients
Scale
- 1½ cups cold milk
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 package (15.25 oz) Easter or pastel Oreo cookies
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla or cheesecake pudding mix
- 8 oz Cool Whip or whipped topping
- Pastel sprinkles or mini candy eggs (for garnish)
Instructions
- Crush ⅔ of the Oreo cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or zip-top bag with a rolling pin.
- Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter and press into the bottom of a 9×9 or 9×13-inch dish. Chill in the refrigerator.
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes until thickened. Set aside.
- In another bowl, beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in half of the Cool Whip until combined.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the Oreo crust.
- Carefully layer the pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer.
- Top with the remaining Cool Whip, smoothing it over the top.
- Crush the remaining Oreos and sprinkle over the top. Garnish with pastel sprinkles or mini candy eggs.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 to 4 hours before serving.
Notes
- Use any seasonal or pastel-colored Oreo variety for a festive twist.
- For a gluten-free version, substitute with gluten-free sandwich cookies and ensure the pudding mix is gluten-free.
- Try lemon or white chocolate pudding for a flavor variation.
- Homemade whipped cream can be used instead of Cool Whip—make sure it’s stabilized.
