Method
Make the Golden Oreo crust
- Mix the finely crushed Golden Oreos with the melted butter until evenly combined, then press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 dish for an even layer (visual cue: the crust looks packed and uniform). Refrigerate for 20 minutes to set.
Build the cream cheese layer
- Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth (visual cue: no lumps remain). Fold in 1 cup whipped topping, then spread over the chilled crust (visual cue: layer is level and covers the crust completely).
Add the lemon pudding layer
- Whisk the instant pudding with the cold milk for 2 minutes until thickened (visual cue: the mixture holds soft peaks). Spread it over the cream cheese layer (visual cue: a smooth, thick surface forms).
Top with whipped cream and berries
- Spread 2 cups whipped topping evenly over the pudding layer (visual cue: the top is creamy and fully covered).
- Arrange the sliced strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries in rows or a scattered pattern across the top (visual cue: the berries look bright and evenly distributed).
Chill and slice
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours until all layers are set (visual cue: the dessert feels firm when gently pressed). Slice into rectangles and serve cold.
Notes
For the cleanest slices, chill until fully set (at least 4 hours, up to overnight). Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; freezing is not recommended. For a lighter option, use reduced-fat cream cheese and light whipped topping if you want a lower-fat version while keeping the layered look.
