Description
A festive layered dessert with rich chocolatey Oreo cookies and creamy fillings, perfect for the holiday season.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies (regular or holiday-themed)
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup mini marshmallows (optional, for extra fluffiness)
- 1/2 cup crushed peppermint candies or mini M&Ms (for garnish)
- Red and green sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
- Extra whole Oreos for topping
Instructions
- To kick off your dessert, start by creating the crust. Grab your food processor and pulse the Oreo cookies until they reach a fine crumb consistency. Combine the crushed Oreos with melted butter in a mixing bowl and stir until the crumbs are well coated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of your 9×13-inch baking dish to form a solid crust.
- Next, create the creamy filling. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, blending until fully combined. Spread this layer evenly over the prepared Oreo crust.
- Now, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until fully combined. Allow it to sit for about 2 minutes to thicken. Carefully spread it over the cream cheese layer, leveling it off as needed.
- Cover the lasagna with plastic wrap and refrigerate it for at least 3 hours. This chilling time allows the layers to firm up.
- Once chilled, garnish the top with crushed peppermint candies, colorful sprinkles, and whole Oreo cookies. Cut the lasagna into squares and serve.
