Description

Delight in these easy-to-make Cookies and Cream Dessert Cups, featuring a luscious blend of whipped cream, vanilla, and crushed Oreo cookies. Perfectly creamy with a satisfying crunch, these no-bake cups are a crowd-pleaser ready in just over an hour.


Ingredients

Scale

Cookies

  • 12 Oreo cookies

Cream Mixture

  • 2 cups heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract


Instructions

  1. Crush the Cookies: Place the Oreo cookies in a plastic bag and use a rolling pin to crush them into fine crumbs, ensuring that the pieces are small enough to blend well but still maintain some texture.
  2. Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream using an electric mixer until soft peaks begin to form, indicating the cream is starting to thicken.
  3. Add Sweeteners and Flavor: Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, then continue whipping until stiff peaks form, which will help the mixture hold its shape.
  4. Fold in Cookie Crumbs: Gently fold the crushed Oreo cookies into the whipped cream mixture, making sure they are evenly distributed without deflating the whipped cream.
  5. Assemble Dessert Cups: Spoon the creamy Oreo mixture into individual serving cups, creating enough space at the top for presentation if desired.
  6. Chill to Set: Place the dessert cups in the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour to allow the mixture to firm up and the flavors to meld together perfectly before serving.

Notes

  • Use chilled heavy cream for best whipping results.
  • For an extra chocolatey touch, sprinkle additional crushed Oreos on top before chilling.
  • These cups can be prepared a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator.
  • Serve chilled to maintain the creamy texture and refreshing flavor.
