Oreo Cake – also called Oreo Delight or Chocolate Dessert Lasagna. It’s a no-bake dessert with creamy layers of vanillia pudding, cream cheese and cool whip!
Oreo Cake
This is my family’s most favorite dessert! It’s sooo popular and a guaranteed hit with guests. Plus, it’s really easy to make (and take)!
In our house this dessert is known as Oreo Cake.
It’s really not a cake at all, but creamy layers of whipped cream, cream cheese and pudding on an Oreo crust.
It’s sometimes called Dessert Lasagna or Oreo Delight.
This version is different from all the others because it’s made with vanilla instead of chocolate pudding.
Now I am a total chocolate lover, but I swear it’s better with vanilla!
We started calling it Oreo Cake because in my family it was often requested in lieu of birthday cake.
Beware of using birthday candles on it though – the Oreo crumbs can get everywhere when blowing them out!
I speak from past experience. 😀 Mom actually had to get out the vacuum it was so bad.
Luckily, not many people get upset with being covered in Oreos for some reason.
So that’s why we call it Oreo Cake. The original name has long been forgotten, but this recipe continues to be the hit of every party.
Just last week Dad brought one to a graduation party and the graduate didn’t even get a slice it disappeared so fast!
Can’t blame them though, it’s so good you just want to dig in!
Luckily, Oreo Cake is a breeze to put together. File this one under “family favorites” or “desserts that disappear fast.”
Update: we love no-bake dessert recipes so much that I’ve since created some tasty variations. Be sure to check them all out!
There’s a chocolate cheesecake pudding dessert for all the chocolate lovers, as well as a lemon cheesecake pudding dessert that tastes like one of my favorite Girl Scout cookies!
My current favorite right now is this Mint Chocolate Lasagna–it’s to die for!
When the cool weather hits, we turn to this pumpkin oreo dessert. If you’ve never had pumpkin and chocolate together, you’re in for a big treat!

I love your recipes! I made the Oreo AND strawberry icebox deserts too & they were a hit. The second time I made this I had strawberry cream cheese I needed to use, so I subbed that in for the reg cream cheese & the pudding mix I used was cheesecake flavored. So I just used regular flavored graham crackers as base. I kinda completely changed it this time just cuz of what I had left in the house & thanks to you I had the idea to do so cuz of your amazingly yummy speciality’s!!

@Rebekah, It was delicious but the oreo crust stuck to the bottom like glue. It wasn't a non stick pan, maybe that's why?

Yes. Perfect for the layers to set up.

I've never tried but I don't see why not! Would even be tasty served partially thawed.

I made this for a meal for those who are without homes that we do every week in a local park. Our guests went absolutely crazy over this dessert-raving about it and making sure others were sure to try it. They are often complimentary but this was a striking response. I made a few changes based on what I had - no butter, just crushed sandwich cookies for the bottom crust, cream cheese/greek yogurt dip in place of the cream cheese. Obviously, I am going to have to make this over and over using different flavors of pudding and different kinds of cookies since it was so well loved. Thank you.
