This Oreo Dessert Recipe will be your new favorite Summer dessert

A lot of other oreo desserts tend to get mushy and don’t cut nicely because they have a layer of actual pudding in the middle.

Our dessert still uses a box of chocolate pudding mix, but you prepare the pudding mix so it turns out to be like chocolate mousse. That means our dessert is thick, fluffy and cuts cleanly!

Cream Cheese Layer

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, beat on high until its fluffy. Add in one container of cool whip and mix on low until incorporated. Spread the cream cheese layer evenly over the oreo crust. 

Chocolate Mousse Layer

Combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and 6 crushed oreos in the bowl, beat with an electric mixer for 4-5 minutes, or until stiff peaks form / it’s scoop-able with a spoon and holds its shape. Spread this layer on top of the chocolate mousse layer. Top the dessert with the remaining 6 oreos, breaking them into smaller pieces.

Total Time Required

  • 4 minutes to make the crust
  • 5 minutes to make the cream cheese layer
  • 5 minutes to make the chocolate mousse layer
  • 4 minutes to make the oreo whipped cream
  • 4+ hours to chill in the fridge

 Tips

  • Use a family size 19.1 oz package of oreos.
  • Do not follow the directions on the pudding box. Add the pudding mix powder to the heavy cream, then mix with electric mixer.
  • The chocolate mousse layer is VERY thick when mixing it. If you have a stand mixer, this is a great time to use it!

No more mushy Oreo Dessert! This oreo delight recipe is thick, fluffy and cuts cleanly. It’s put together in just 20 minutes of prep with 8 ingredients, and has a reputation for becoming a go-to family favorite.

Ingredients

Crust

  • 36 oreos, use a 19.1 oz family size package, which has 48 cookies so you’ll have extra for the whipped cream & topping
  • 1 stick unsalted butter, melted, 1/2 cup

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces cool whip, thawed

Chocolate Mousse Layer

  • 1 box chocolate instant pudding mix, 3.9 oz
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, 1 pint
  • 8 oz cool whip, thawed

Oreo Whipped Cream

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream, 1 pint
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 6 oreos, crushed

For the Top

  • 6 oreos, crushed

Instructions 

  • Before you begin, place a metal or glass mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer. Use a family size (19.1 oz) package with 48 oreos for this recipe. 36 oreos will be used for the oreo crust, 6 oreos in the oreo whipped cream and 6 oreos for the top of the dessert. 

Oreo Crust

  • In a blender or food processor, blend 36 oreo cookies (blend the whole cookie – the cream and the cookie). Transfer the oreos to a bowl and stir in the melted butter, the mixture will be thick and stick together. Press the oreo crust into an un-greased 9×13 inch pan. Use the bottom of a cup to press the oreos into an even layer. Place the pan in the fridge while making the next layer.

Cream Cheese Layer

  • In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract, beat on high for 1-2 minuets, until it’s very fluffy. Add in one container of cool whip and mix on low until incorporated. Spread the cream cheese layer evenly over the oreo crust. Return the pan to the fridge. 

Chocolate Mousse Layer

  • In a mixing bowl (you can quickly rinse and dry the bowl you used for the cream cheese layer), combine the pudding mix and heavy cream. Beat with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until thick, 1-2 minutes. Do not prepare the pudding mix as directed on the box, simply add the powdered mix to the heavy cream. Add in one container of cool whip and mix on low until incorporated. Spread this layer on top of the cream cheese layer. Return the pan to the fridge.

Oreo Whipped Cream Layer

  • Remove the metal or glass bowl and beaters from the freezer. Combine the heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract and 6 crushed oreos in the bowl, beat with an electric mixer for 4-5 minutes, or until stiff peaks form / it’s scoop-able with a spoon and holds its shape. Spread this layer on top of the chocolate mousse layer.
  • Top the dessert with the remaining 6 oreos, breaking them into smaller pieces.
  • Cover with a lid or plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for 4 hours. After chilling, use a sharp knife to cut the dessert into pieces and serve. 

Notes

  • Do not follow the directions on the pudding box. Add the pudding mix powder to the heavy cream, then mix with electric mixer.
  • Store oreo dessert covered in the fridge. It’s best eaten within 2 days. Do not freeze.

    Great recipe! I had to change it a bit because I didn’t have another heavy cream available. Changes: I added the 6 crushed Oreos to the Mousse layer and the last layer was just whipped cream with the remaining 6 crushed Oreos on top! The crowd loved it! Thank you!
