Ingredients
- 14 oz package of Oreos
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 3½ cups cold whole milk
- 2 (3.4 oz) boxes of French vanilla pudding
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream (or Cool Whip)
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 lb fresh strawberries, sliced
- ¼ to ½ cup fresh raspberries
- Pretzel sticks (to resemble sticks)
- Mini marshmallows (to resemble rocks)
- 4-6 oz white chocolate
- 2 tsp coconut oil (for melting)
- Crushed pistachios (for “moss”)
Instructions
- Make the pudding: In a large bowl, whisk together the cold milk and instant pudding mix. Let it sit for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
- Crush the Oreos: Place the regular Oreos in a food processor and pulse until they are crushed into coarse crumbs. Alternatively, crush them in a ziplock bag using a rolling pin.
- Whip the cream: In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Fold in the vanilla extract gently.
- Mix the cream cheese: In a clean bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and beat until smooth. Mix in the thickened pudding until well blended.
- Fold in the whipped cream: Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and pudding mixture using a rubber spatula.
- Assemble the layers: Choose a serving dish and add a layer of crushed Oreos to the bottom, then a layer of the cream mixture. Repeat this process, finishing with a layer of crushed Oreos.
- Add the toppings: Decorate the top with sliced strawberries, raspberries, crushed pistachios, pretzel sticks, mini marshmallows, and melted white chocolate drizzled over the top.
