Want something a little bit more refreshing? Try a cheesecake salad recipe made with fruit instead!

I have one that tastes like peach cobbler and another that’s reminiscent of caramel apples topped with Snickers candy bars.

For a dessert that is similar to this Oreo fluff salad, check out the classic pistachio version made with crushed pineapple and crunchy pecan pieces.

Cheesecake Salad Recipe - Tips and Tricks

• Save some effort. Crush the cookies in a food processor instead of by hand. Just be sure to use the pulse function so you end up with chunks instead of crumbs.
• Use chilled bowls. Metal retains the cold better than glass, so use those if you have them. Pop them in the refrigerator for a few minutes before getting started for best results.
• Want a silkier texture? Replace the heavy cream in the cream cheese mixture with regular milk. You can also fold in a container of Cool Whip instead of whipping the heavy cream by hand.
• Don’t forget the garnish! Set aside a few whole Oreos to press into individual bowls or turn them into crumbs to dust over the top of the dessert.

Create Different Flavors!

You could easily swap out the sandwich cookies for another variety, as long as they are crunchy to begin with. I wouldn’t recommend softer cookies since they will turn to mush or disintegrate entirely.

Because the cream center of the Oreos adds another layer of sweetness to the finished dessert, this cheesecake salad recipe only calls for a small amount of powdered sugar.

If you will be trying out different cookie combinations, you may need to add extra powdered sugar.

Try tasting the dessert after folding the whipped topping in at the end and add more if you think it needs it.

What You’ll Need To Make Oreo Fluff

• Stand mixer or large mixing bowl with hand mixer
• Rolling pin - Makes quick work of crushing the cookies with very little effort.
• Silicone Spatula - Sturdy enough to mix everything together gently and thoroughly while easily wiping clean afterwards.
• Serving Bowl - Choose something clear and simple so the Oreo fluff salad can be the star of the show!

FAQ - Common Recipe Questions

Can I make this cheesecake salad recipe ahead of time?

You sure can! Mix up the fluff portion and place it in the refrigerator covered tightly with plastic.

Then, stir in the marshmallows and crushed cookies just before serving so they don’t become too soft.

How long does Oreo fluff last in the refrigerator?

It will keep for up to 2 days when covered with plastic or stored in an airtight container.

However, the Oreos and marshmallows will continue to soften the longer it sits, so it’s best when eaten the same day that it is made.

Can I use regular pudding mix instead?

You don't want to use cooked pudding mix for this recipe, since it won’t set up properly.

Enjoy!
