Can I make this dessert ahead of time?

Absolutely. In fact, it’s best made ahead of time . The layers need at least 4 hours to firm up, but overnight chilling is ideal. That extra time helps the flavors come together and makes slicing easier. This is a top reason it’s loved as an easy no bake heavenly Oreo dessert — it’s low-effort, make-ahead, and stress-free for events.

Can I substitute whipped cream for Cool Whip?

Yes! You can use homemade whipped cream if you prefer a more natural alternative. Just beat heavy cream + powdered sugar until stiff peaks form. Keep in mind that homemade whipped cream may deflate faster, so serve within a day or two. Also useful if you're modifying this into a no bake heavenly Oreo dessert with condensed milk or other custom variations.

Do I have to use Double Stuf Oreos?

Double Stuf Oreos give the crust more moisture and a richer flavor. However, you can use regular Oreos or even flavored ones like mint or golden Oreos. Just be sure to check the texture — if it’s too dry, add a bit more melted butter.

Can I make this gluten-free or dairy-free?

Absolutely. Use gluten-free Oreo-style cookies , plant-based cream cheese , non-dairy whipped topping , and dairy-free milk for the pudding layer. Just be sure your pudding mix can set with the milk you choose (almond and oat work best). Perfect for people searching for simple Oreo dessert recipes and customized no bake options .

Instructions

Crush Oreos in a food processor or place in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin. Reserve 1/2 cup for topping, if desired.
In a medium bowl, mix crushed Oreos (excluding the reserved portion) with melted butter until well combined. Press into the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish to form the crust. Chill for 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and fluffy. Fold in half of the whipped topping. Spread over the Oreo crust.
In another bowl, whisk together pudding mixes and cold milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Spread over the cream cheese layer.
Top with the remaining whipped topping and smooth it out evenly.
Sprinkle reserved crushed Oreos or chocolate shavings on top.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) before serving to allow layers to set.

Notes

You can use Golden Oreos or flavored Oreos for a twist.
Try using vanilla or cheesecake pudding for a variation.
Make it ahead and refrigerate up to 2 days in advance — perfect for parties!
For extra richness, drizzle with hot fudge or chocolate syrup before serving.
