Equipment

  • Mixing Bowls
  • Mixer
  • Measuring Cups
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Spatula
  • Food Processor or Zip-top Bag
  • Rolling Pin

Ingredients

  • 18 Oreos
  • 4 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • ¾ cup heavy cream divided
  • 1 tbsp powdered sugar

Instructions

  • Place the Oreos in a zip-top bag or food processor. Crush them until they resemble small coarse rocks. You want a mixture of fine crumbs with some larger chunks for texture.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with a mixer until smooth
  • Sift in ½ cup of powdered sugar and unsweetened cocoa powder, beat until fully combined
  • Add in the milk and beat until smooth. This helps thin out the cream cheese mixture and creates a silky texture.
  • Gradually pour in the ¼ cup heavy cream and continue to beat until the mixture becomes thick and creamy (about 2-3 minutes)
  • Fold in your Oreos, setting aside ¼ cup for the top
  • In a separate bowl, add your remaining ½ cup of heavy cream and sift over your tablespoon of powdered sugar, whip until you have stiff peaks
  • Fold your whipped cream into your chocolate mixture until combined. Top with the Oreos your saved and cover
  • Place in the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours to set. This allows the flavors to blend and time for the Oreos to soften
  • Transfer to a serving dish and top with the remaining crushed Oreos
  • Serve with fruit, pretzels, graham crackers, or any of your favorite snacks, and enjoy!
