With layers of cream cheese, Cool Whip, cheesecake pudding and fresh strawberries, this Strawberry Cheesecake Lush will quickly become your new favorite summer dessert!

Believe it or not, until Memorial Weekend, I’ve never had a layered dessert like this before. Now that I’ve made and photographed one, I realized this type of dessert is all over the internet in various forms.  Chocolate, pistachio and lemon seem to be the forerunners, and I’m making it my life’s mission to try every version possible before the end of summer.

This Strawberry Cheesecake Lush is that good.




Strawberry Cheesecake Lush

Ingredients

1 package Golden Oreos (36 cookies)
6 tablespoons butter, melted
8 ounces softened cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 (16-ounce) container Cool Whip, divided
2 packages (3.4 ounce each) instant cheesecake pudding mix
3 cups milk
3½ cups sliced strawberries

Method

  • Crush the entire package of Oreos. A food processor would work great for this - I don't have one, so I just placed my cookies in a gallon sized Ziplock bag and crushed them with a rolling pin. When the cookies are fine crumbs, transfer them to a large bowl and mix in 6 tablespoons of melted butter. Press the cookie mixture into a 9x13 pan and refrigerate while you prepare the remaining layers.
  • Next, beat together 1 cup of powdered sugar, the cream cheese, and 1 cup of Cool Whip. Spread over your cookie layer.
