Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 50 (50 cookies) Oreo cookies regular (not double-stuffed), plus more for topping
  • 3 cups (710 ml) heavy whipping cream cold
  • 3/4 cup (90 g) powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp (5 ml) vanilla extract optional

Equipment

  • Electric hand mixer or stand mixer
  • Large mixing bowl
  • 9x13 inch Baking Dish
  • Rubber spatula
  • Plastic Wrap

Instructions
 

  1. Whip the cream: In a large cold bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract (if using) with a mixer until stiff peaks form. The mixture should be thick, glossy, and able to hold shape.
  2. Layer the cookies: Arrange a single layer of Oreo cookies (about 30 cookies) at the bottom of a 9x13-inch dish. Break a few cookies as needed to fit and cover the whole base.
  3. Add cream: Dollop about one-third of the whipped cream over the Oreos and gently spread to cover them evenly.
  4. Repeat layers: Add a second layer of Oreos, another third of cream, a third (final) layer of Oreos, and top with the remaining cream. Smooth the top.
  5. Chill: Cover tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight for best results, until the Oreos have softened into a cake-like texture.
  6. Finish and serve: Just before serving, crush a few extra Oreos and sprinkle over the top. Slice with a clean knife or serve with a spoon.

Notes

This recipe is extremely flexible! Try swapping in Golden Oreos or a different cookie variety, add a drizzle of chocolate sauce, or layer in some fresh berries for a tart twist. To store, cover and refrigerate for up to 4-5 days. It can also be frozen—wrap well and thaw before slicing. For best slices, use a sharp, cleaned knife.
