FAQs for Golden Oreo Cake

Can I use regular Oreos instead of Golden Oreos?

Yes, you can! Regular Oreos will work just as well in this recipe. However, keep in mind that using regular Oreos will result in a more chocolatey flavor for the dessert.

Do I have to use instant vanilla pudding mix?

Instant vanilla pudding mix works best for this recipe because it sets quickly and provides a creamy and flavorful layer for the cake. However, if you prefer, you can use regular vanilla pudding mix, though it might not set up as well.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 5.1-ounce package of instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 8-ounce container of whipped topping, thawed
  • 34 Golden Oreos
  • 8 Golden Oreos crushed

Instructions

  • Whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and cold milk in a large bowl until it starts to thicken, after about 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the thawed whipped topping, and fold it in gently with a spatula. Set aside.
  • Place a single layer of Golden Oreos in the bottom of an 8×8 baking dish or pan. Cut a couple of Oreos in half to fill in the empty spaces.
  • Spoon about half of the pudding over the Oreo layer and spread evenly.
  • Place another singer layer of Oreos over the pudding, then spread the rest of the pudding on top.
  • Sprinkle the crushed Oreos on top, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours. (Overnight is best for the Oreos to soften slightly.)
  • Slice and serve chilled.
