You can make elaborate desserts. Great, tall towers of meringue, e laborate tunnels of frosting and lakes of ganache. You can make whoopie pies so good your grandma would cry, and Baked Alaska any cruise chef would be proud to call his own.
All of those desserts are completely awesome. I'd love to have them, every day. (You can tell by the size of my hips. Oy.)
The thing that those listed desserts have in common, though, is that they are time consuming. And as much as I might want them - I just don't have the time, on a daily basis, to make them. What I can do is make the everyday dessert a little more special. You know, that scoop of ice cream, the pudding cup, the piece of chocolate cake or fruit in jello - those easy, peasy, lemon squeezy desserts that come together in a snap. Those desserts that, when topped with COOL WHIP Whipped Topping - might cause a riot in your house.
Or, you can make the Oreo pudding that I often make for family get togethers - seriously, don't judge, it's one of the BEST things I've ever made - and know that, when you do, your family will feel extra special and loved. Try this pudding the next time you have family over, and watch their faces light up when you've made a easy dessert a special treat.
OREO PUDDING
- 1 pkg Oreo cookies, crushed (regular size box)
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 2 small boxes instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 stick butter
- 3 1/2 cups milk
- 12 oz COOL WHIP
Mix together cream cheese, sugar and butter. Set aside. Mix together other ingredients(excluding oreos!) and whip until it becomes thick. Combine the two mixes together and layer with Oreo cookies, forming six layers, beginning with cream and ending with Oreos. Chill for a few hours before serving.
