Ingredients
  

For the crust
  • 24 Golden Oreos finely crushed
  • 5 tbsp butter melted
For the cream cheese layer
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 oz whipped topping divided
For the Jell-O layers
  • 3 oz strawberry Jell-O
  • 3 oz berry blue Jell-O
  • 2 cups boiling water divided
  • 1 cup cold water divided

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan
  • 1 Dutch oven

Method
 

Make the Oreo crust
  1. Mix the finely crushed Golden Oreos with the melted butter until evenly moistened, then press firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 dish with even pressure.
  2. Refrigerate the crust for 20 minutes to firm up before layering.
Add the cream cheese layer
  1. Beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth, then fold in half of the whipped topping.
  2. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the chilled crust in an even layer, then refrigerate while you prepare the Jell-O.
Layer strawberry Jell-O
  1. Dissolve the strawberry Jell-O in 1 cup boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved.
  2. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water, then cool to room temperature, making sure it does not set.
  3. Pour the cooled strawberry Jell-O gently over the cream cheese layer, then refrigerate for 1 hour until set.
Layer blueberry Jell-O and finish
  1. Dissolve the berry blue Jell-O in 1 cup boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved.
  2. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water, then cool to room temperature before pouring, without letting it set.
  3. Pour the cooled blueberry Jell-O gently over the set strawberry layer, then refrigerate for 1 more hour.
  4. Spread the remaining whipped topping over the top, chill for another 30 minutes, then slice into rectangles to serve.

Notes

Pro tip: cool the Jell-O to room temperature and pour slowly so it doesn’t disturb the cream layer. Refrigerate covered for up to 4 days; freezing is not recommended because the Jell-O and whipped topping texture can break down. For a lighter option, use reduced-fat cream cheese and lite whipped topping if you want a less rich cream layer.
