Step-by-step instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat together softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and whipped cream until smooth and well combined.
- Quickly dip each Oreo into the milk. This will soften them, making for easier layering.
- Begin layering the dipped Oreos in a rectangular dish.
- Spread a layer of the cream mixture over the Oreos, then sprinkle some colorful sprinkles on top.
- Repeat the layers until you’ve used all ingredients, making sure to finish with the cream mixture on top.
- Cover the dish and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight for the best results.
- Before serving, feel free to top it off with additional sprinkles for that extra festive touch!
