Ingredients
Scale
- 1 package (14–15 oz) Oreo cookies, crushed
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 packages (3.4 oz each) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 3 cups cold milk
- 1 container (12 oz) whipped topping, thawed
- 1 cup pastel candy-coated chocolates
- 1 cup speckled Easter eggs
- Extra Oreo halves (for topping)

Instructions
- CRUSH THE OREOS: Place the Oreo cookies (with filling) into a food processor and pulse until you get a mix of fine crumbs and small chunks. Set aside.
- MAKE THE CREAM CHEESE BASE: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and butter together until smooth and creamy, then gradually add the powdered sugar.
- PREPARE THE PUDDING: In a separate bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk for about 2 minutes until it thickens, then let it sit for another 2–3 minutes.
- COMBINE THE FILLING: Add the pudding mixture into the cream cheese mixture and blend until fully combined and smooth, then gently fold in the whipped topping.
- LAYER THE TRIFLE: In a clear trifle bowl, layer crushed Oreos, cream filling, and pastel candies until the bowl is filled.
- DECORATE THE TOP: Finish with whipped topping, Oreo halves, pastel eggs, and sprinkles for decoration.
- CHILL: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2–4 hours, or overnight for best results.
