Ingredients
Scale
Cake Base:
- 14.3 ounces (405 grams) vanilla sandwich cookies
- 6 tablespoons (85 grams) salted butter, melted
Filling:
- 16 ounces (454 grams) cream cheese
- 3/4 cup (90 grams) powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 6.8 ounces (192 grams) vanilla-flavored instant pudding mix
- 2 cups (480 milliliters) whole milk
Topping and Garnish:
- 16 ounces (454 grams) frozen whipped topping
- 1/4 cup (40 grams) rainbow sprinkles
Instructions
- Pulverize vanilla sandwich cookies in a food processor until finely ground, blending with melted butter to create a cohesive crust mixture.
- Firmly press the cookie-butter blend into a greased 9×13-inch dish, then chill in refrigerator to solidify the base.
- Whip cream cheese and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl until achieving a silky, lump-free consistency.
- Fold in whipped topping and vanilla extract, gently incorporating until the mixture becomes smooth and uniform.
- In a separate container, combine instant pudding mix with whole milk, whisking vigorously until the mixture thickens and develops a creamy texture.
- Carefully spread the cream cheese layer evenly across the chilled cookie crust, ensuring complete coverage.
- Gently pour the prepared pudding layer over the cream cheese, creating a distinct and clean separation between layers.
- Top the dessert with remaining whipped topping, distributing it uniformly across the surface.
- Liberally scatter rainbow sprinkles over the entire dessert, adding a festive and colorful finish.
- Refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and layers to set completely.
- Before serving, garnish with additional sprinkles for extra visual appeal and celebratory touch.
Notes
- Crush cookies thoroughly to create a smooth, compact crust that holds together perfectly when sliced.
- Ensure cream cheese is completely softened at room temperature for a silky, lump-free filling that spreads easily.
- Chill the dessert for the full 4 hours or overnight to allow flavors to meld and layers to set firmly.
- Customize the dessert by using different cookie flavors or adding colorful birthday cake-themed sprinkles for extra festive flair.
