Mixed Berry Icebox Cake Recipe

Introduction

This Mixed Berry Icebox Cake is a creamy, no-bake dessert perfect for warm days. Layers of cheesecake pudding, milk-soaked Oreos, fresh strawberries, blueberries, and fluffy whipped cream come together for a delightful treat that’s as beautiful as it is delicious.

Ingredients

• 2 (3.4 oz) packages cheesecake flavored pudding
• 4 1/2 cups (1080 ml) milk, divided
• 2 (15.25 oz) boxes Golden Oreos
• 1 lb package strawberries, washed and sliced
• 1 pint blueberries, plus more for decorating
• 12 oz Cool Whip, or 1 1/2 recipes of Homemade Whipped Cream

Instructions

1. Step 1: Make both cheesecake flavored puddings according to the package directions, using 4 cups of the milk (2 cups per package). Set aside.
2. Step 2: Pour the remaining 1/2 cup milk into a small bowl. Quickly dip Golden Oreos in the milk, then place them in a single layer at the bottom of a 9×13-inch pan.
3. Step 3: Spread half of the prepared cheesecake pudding over the Oreos in an even layer.
4. Step 4: Arrange a single layer of sliced strawberries on top of the pudding, reserving some strawberry slices for decorating later.
5. Step 5: Spread half of the whipped cream or Cool Whip over the strawberries.
6. Step 6: Quickly dip the remaining Oreos in milk and place them in a single layer over the whipped cream.
7. Step 7: Spread the remaining cheesecake pudding evenly over the Oreo layer.
8. Step 8: Add a layer of blueberries on top, reserving some for decoration later.
9. Step 9: Spread the remaining whipped cream or Cool Whip over the blueberries.
10. Step 10: Decorate the top with the reserved strawberry slices and blueberries.
11. Step 11: Refrigerate the cake for about 2-3 hours before serving. This allows the Oreos to soften for easy slicing while keeping the dessert chilled and refreshing.

Tips & Variations

• For a homemade touch, substitute Cool Whip with freshly whipped heavy cream sweetened with a little powdered sugar and vanilla extract.
• Try mixing in other berries like raspberries or blackberries for additional flavor and color.
• Use chocolate sandwich cookies instead of Golden Oreos for a richer taste.
• If you prefer a firmer texture, refrigerate overnight before serving.

Storage

Store the icebox cake covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Because of the milk-soaked cookies, the texture is best enjoyed within this time frame before it becomes too soft. Reheat is not recommended as this dessert is served chilled.

How to Serve

Serve this delicious recipe with your favorite sides.

FAQs

Can I make this icebox cake ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare it up to a day in advance. Refrigerate it well-covered and decorate just before serving if you want the berries to look fresh.

What can I use instead of cheesecake flavored pudding?

If cheesecake pudding isn’t available, vanilla or cream cheese flavored pudding works well as a substitute and still provides a creamy base for the cake.

Notes

• For best results, use fresh and ripe strawberries and blueberries to enhance flavor and texture.
• Cool Whip can be substituted with fresh homemade whipped cream for a lighter, less processed option.
• The cake can be assembled a day ahead to deepen flavor and ease preparation before serving.
• Use Golden Oreos for a nice contrast in flavor and color to traditional chocolate Oreos.
• If you prefer a firmer cake, refrigerate longer, but 2-3 hours is sufficient for optimal texture.
