4.8 from 140 reviews

A delightful and festive no-bake dessert layered with creamy cream cheese, whipped cream, vanilla pudding, and a crunchy Oreo cookie crust, perfect for Christmas celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 package (15.35 oz) Oreo cookies (regular or holiday-themed)
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Cream Cheese Layer

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pudding Layer

  • 1 package (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups milk

Toppings

  • 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

  1. Prepare the Oreo Crust: In a food processor, pulse the Oreo cookies (reserve some for topping) until finely crushed. Combine the crushed Oreos with melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to form a crust. Set aside.
  2. Make the Cream Cheese Layer: In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and lump-free using an electric mixer on medium speed for about 2 minutes. In a separate bowl, whip heavy whipping cream with vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture to create a smooth, airy texture. Spread this creamy layer evenly over the Oreo crust.
  3. Make the Pudding Layer: Whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix with milk in a clean bowl. Allow it to sit for about 2 minutes to thicken fully. Pour and spread the pudding layer evenly over the cream cheese layer.
  4. Top with Marshmallows (Optional): Sprinkle mini marshmallows evenly over the pudding layer if desired for extra fluffiness and texture.
  5. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled lasagna for at least 3 hours to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld. This makes the dessert easy to slice and enjoy.
  6. Garnish and Serve: Before serving, sprinkle crushed peppermint candies or mini M&Ms and red and green sprinkles on top. Finish decoration by placing whole Oreo cookies on the surface. Slice into squares and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is softened to make mixing easier and smoother.
  • Adjust the amount of mini marshmallows to preference or omit if you prefer.
  • This dessert can be prepared a day in advance for improved flavor and convenience.
  • Use a food processor for quick and even Oreo cookie crushing; if unavailable, use a zip-top bag and rolling pin.
  • For variations, swap vanilla pudding with chocolate pudding or use gluten-free or dairy-free alternatives as needed.
