Oreo M&M Dessert Trifle
Ingredients:
For the crust layer:
1 package of Oreos (about 20 cookies)
1/4 cup butter (melted)
For the cream layer:
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
For the candy layer:
1/2 cup M&M's (preferably colorful)
Extra Oreos for garnish
Instructions:
Prepare the Oreo Crust:
Crush the Oreos into fine crumbs. You can do this by placing the cookies in a plastic bag and using a rolling pin or using a food processor.
Mix the Oreo crumbs with melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a trifle dish or a 9x9-inch baking dish to form a crust.
Prepare the Cream Layer:
In a large bowl, beat the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture gently until combined.
Spread a generous layer of this cream mixture over the Oreo crust.
Add the Candy Layer:
Sprinkle M&M's on top of the cream layer, making sure they are evenly distributed. Feel free to add extra candy if you want it more colorful!
Optionally, crush a few extra Oreos and sprinkle them on top as well for added texture and flavor.
Chill the Dessert:
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2-3 hours, allowing the flavors to set and meld together.
Serve:
Once chilled, serve the trifle as individual servings or in the large dish. Top with extra Oreos or M&M's if desired.
This Oreo M&M Dessert Trifle is rich, fun, and sure to be a crowd-pleaser at any gathering!
