Our Golden Oreo Dessert is quick, easy, and made in 5 minutes with four ingredients! Imagine golden Oreo cookie bliss, cool and creamy layers, and a dessert that practically makes itself.
No Bake Golden Oreo Layered Dessert
Our Golden Oreo Dessert is easy to make using only Golden Oreos and homemade whipped cream (you can save time with a store-bought Cool Whip shortcut).
This Golden Oreo lush dessert is nothing more than a few light and fluffy layers sandwiched between Oreo cookies; so simple yet so delicious.
As the refrigerator cake chills, the cookies soak up the moisture from the cream, and the layers merge into a soft, tender cake-like texture – it’s the ultimate summer slice for easy entertaining.
What I love most about a layered golden Oreo dessert recipe is that it tastes refreshingly cool and not too heavy when warm weather calls for something light; why heat your house when it’s already hot outside?

How to Make Golden Oreo Dessert
- Create The Whipped Cream: Beat the cold heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract for 2-3 minutes until stiff peaks form.
Pro Tip: Start on low speed, then gradually increase the speed to keep the heavy cream from splattering. - Assemble: Place an even layer of Oreos on the bottom of the baking dish. Spread whipped cream over the cookies, add another layer of cookies over the whipped cream, top with whipped cream, and sprinkle with crushed cookies.
- Chill: Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, but up to overnight for best results.
- Slice And Serve: Enjoy!
Tips For Making Golden Oreo Dessert
- This golden Oreo dessert should be served chilled for the best results.
- If you want nice clean cuts, place your dish in the freezer for 20-30 minutes to firm up before slicing. Do not freeze for long periods.
- Any brand of golden or vanilla cream cookies will work in this recipe. You could even use the golden Oreo cookie thins and add a third layer of cookies.
- When spreading the whipped cream, be sure to push some of the mixture in between the cookies.
- Crush your Oreo cookies in a large zip-top bag until they are slightly chunky cookie crumbs.
How to Store Golden Oreo Dessert

- To Freeze: I do not recommend freezing this dessert for long-term storage as the heavy cream will break down when thawed.

Ingredients
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream very cold
- ½ cup powdered sugar

Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the cold heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract for 2-3 minutes until stiff peaks form.

- Using an offset spatula, spread half of the whipped cream over the first layer of golden Oreo cookies in an even layer. Be sure to try to push some of the whipped cream in between the cookies.
- Add another 16 golden Oreo cookies in an even layer over the whipped cream.
