Ingredients

Scale

Cookies

  • 1 package (14.3 oz) Oreo cookies

Cream Cheese Mixture

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup butter, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar

Pudding Layer

  • 1 package (5.1 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 3/4 cups cold milk

Whipped Topping

  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed

Instructions

  1. Crush the Oreos: Place Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse into fine crumbs. Alternatively, put them in a zip-top bag and crush with a rolling pin. Set aside.
  2. Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, butter, and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  3. Prepare the Pudding: In a separate bowl, whisk the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk together for about 2 minutes, until thickened.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gently fold the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture, stirring until fully combined and smooth.
  5. Add Whipped Topping: Carefully fold in the thawed whipped topping until incorporated.
  6. Layer the Dessert: Spread half of the crushed Oreos in the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish. Pour the creamy mixture over the Oreos and spread evenly.
  7. Add Final Layer: Sprinkle the remaining crushed Oreos evenly over the top to create a “dirt” layer.
  8. Chill and Serve: Refrigerate the dirt cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible, to allow the layers to set. Serve chilled.
