Ingredients
Scale
- 36 Oreo cookies (three sleeves)
- 16 ounces (450g) whipped topping or homemade whipped cream
- 1 cup sliced strawberries
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup raspberries
- 8 ounces (225g) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup (60g) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Fold in lemon zest if using.
- Gently fold the whipped topping into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined but still light and airy.
- Prepare the Oreos by separating cookies if stuck and slice the strawberries. Rinse berries gently and pat dry.
- In a 9×13-inch dish, spread a thin layer of the cream mixture on the bottom.
- Lay down a single layer of whole Oreo cookies over the cream.
- Spread another layer of cream mixture over the cookies, smoothing gently.
- Scatter a mix of berries on top.
- Repeat layers (Oreos, cream, berries) until ingredients are used or dish is filled, ending with a cream layer and a berry garnish.
- Chill the cake overnight or at least 4 hours before serving.
- Cut into neat squares and serve chilled.
Notes
[‘Do not crush the Oreos to maintain texture contrast.’, ‘Use room temperature cream cheese for smooth mixing.’, ‘Fold whipped topping gently to keep the mixture airy.’, ‘Pat berries dry to avoid sogginess.’, ‘Chill long enough for layers to set properly; overnight is best.’, ‘Frozen berries can be used if thawed and drained.’, ‘Dairy-free and gluten-free substitutions are possible.’]
