Light, creamy, and packed with cookies-and-cream flavor, this easy Oreo mousse is a no-bake dessert made with simple ingredients and topped with extra Oreo crumbs for the perfect sweet finish.
Equipment
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Mixing Bowls
- Whisk or Hand mixer
- Spatula
- Piping bag or ziploc
Ingredients
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream chilled
- 8 oz full-fat cream cheese softened
- ⅓ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 12 Oreo cookies crushed
- Mini oreo cookies for garish (optional)
Instructions
- Beat cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Set aside in the fridge.
- In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt until smooth and fluffy(about 1–2 minutes).
- Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in 2–3 additions until no streaks remain.
- Fold in crushed Oreos.
- Spoon or pipe into cups. Top with extra Oreo crumbs and top with mini oreos for garnish.
- Refrigerate 1–2 hours to set up and deepen flavor.
Notes
- Use cold heavy cream: Very cold cream whips up faster and gives the mousse the best light, fluffy texture.
- Soften the cream cheese first: Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened so it blends in smoothly without lumps.
- Beat until smooth: Mix the cream cheese well before adding anything else for the creamiest mousse.
- Fold gently: When adding the whipped cream, fold it in gently so the mousse stays airy and soft.
- Chill before serving: Give the mousse enough time in the fridge so it sets properly and holds its shape.
- Add garnish at the end: Top with Oreo crumbs or mini Oreos right before serving so they stay crisp.
