4th of July Layered Pudding Dessert with Golden Oreos

Langkah-langkah

1. For the bottom layer of Golden Oreos, you can either make a crust that you mix with butter and press in, or you can crumble the Oreos and call it good. Both ways are delicious.

2. Option 1: crumble the Oreos: Add 32 Oreos (two rows) to a ziplock and crush them slightly with a rolling pin. You could also quarter the Oreos with a knife if you like bigger chunks. Add all of these to a 9x13 inch pan.

3. Option 2: Make a crust: Add 32 Oreos to a food processor or blender, and pulse until the Oreos are fine crumbs. Add 4 tablespoons melted butter and pulse to combine. Press this mixture into a 9x13 inch pan. Freeze or refrigerate while you make everything else.

4. Make the vanilla layer: In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat 8 ounces cream cheese until it is smooth and creamy, at least 2 minutes. Scrape the sides and bottom. Make sure it is really soft and creamy .

5. In another large bowl, combine 2 packages of instant pudding with 4 cups of milk. Whisk for 2 minutes until it has thickened. Add the pudding to the bowl with the cream cheese and mix it in. Beat out any lumps as best you can.

6. In the same bowl that you mixed the pudding (scrape it out as best you can), add 1 and 1/2 cups cold cream, 3/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Beat with electric beaters until the cream has stiffened and forms soft peaks, it will take a couple minutes. Fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture.

7. Spread the pudding mixture on top of the crust that you made.

8. Use a knife to chop the remaining row of Oreos (16 Oreos) into quarters or smaller. Sprinkle the Oreos on top of the pudding.

9. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. You can make this up to 12 hours in advance.

10. Just before serving, hull and quarter 1 pound of strawberries, and wash 1 dry pint of blueberries. Sprinkle over the top. Serve!

11. This recipe can be prepared up to 12 hours in advance. I wouldn't go much longer than that, otherwise the Oreos on top start to get too soft. Do not add berries until the last minute. Store any leftovers covered in the fridge.
