Description

Oreo Dirt Cake is a super easy recipe that calls for layers of crushed Oreos to alternate with creamy pudding, cream cheese and Cool Whip layers.

Ingredients

Scale

14 ounces Oreos
4 tablespoons butter softened
8 ounces cream cheese softened
1 cup confectioners sugar
3 1/2 cups milk
2 large boxes instant vanilla pudding 10.2 ounces total
12 ounces Cool Whip 1 1/2 small containers

Instructions

Use a food processor to crush Oreos. Sprinkle half in the bottom of an ungreased 9 x 13 inch pan. Set remaining Oreos aside.
Use electric mixer to cream butter, cream cheese and powdered sugar.
In a large seperate bowl whisk pudding and milk together. Fold in Cool Whip.
Add spoonfuls of creamed mixture to pudding mixture and mix well. Pour on top of Oreos in 9 x 13 inch pan.
Sprinkle remaining crushed Oreos on top.

Notes

Start with softened cream cheese and butter or pudding mixture will likely be lumpy.
Tastes best when chilled. Mixture will be cool after an hour in the refrigerator, but 4 hours of refrigeration is optimum.
Flavors meld together and taste great the first 2 days, but the Oreos get soggy after that.
Always store in the refrigerator. Recipe does not freeze well.
We have made this recipe using both 2 small boxes of instant pudding and 2 large boxes of instant pudding mix, we prefer using large boxes for maximum flavor.
