My husband, bless his heart, is a total dessert fiend. He’d eat cake for breakfast if I let him. The first time I made this Oreo fluff, he basically inhaled half the bowl. Now, whenever I make it (which is, like, once a month at least!), he hovers around the kitchen like a kid on Christmas morning. The best part? My toddler LOVES helping crush the Oreos. It gets a little messy (okay, A LOT messy), but the smiles are worth the cookie crumb explosion. It’s become a family thing, and honestly, it’s the most fun!
Why You’ll Love This Easy Oreo Fluff Recipe

How to Make It
Okay, so grab your bowl (a big one!) and let’s get this show on the road.
First, you’re gonna take your package of Oreos and, well, CRUSH ‘EM! I usually just toss them in a Ziploc bag and go to town with a rolling pin. It’s a great stress reliever, TBH. But you can also use a food processor if you’re fancy like that. Make sure you leave some bigger chunks for texture, it’s way more fun that way!
Next, in that big bowl, you’re gonna whisk together your instant pudding mix and milk. Whisk it good, until it thickens up a bit. It should only take a minute or two. If it’s not thickening, you might need a new pudding mix, or did you even add the milk? (Don’t worry, it happens.)
Now, gently fold in your Cool Whip (or whipped cream if you’re feeling extra fancy). Be gentle! You don’t want to deflate the Cool Whip. This is where the magic happens, trust me.
WANT TO SAVE THIS RECIPE?
Last but not least, fold in those glorious Oreo crumbs. Again, gently! Mix until everything is evenly distributed. Don’t overmix. You want those Oreo chunks to stay intact.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least an hour. This is important! It lets the flavors meld together and the pudding set up properly. But honestly, who am I kidding? I usually sneak a spoonful (or three) before it goes in the fridge. Don’t judge me!
Ingredient Notes
- Oreos: Okay, this is pretty self-explanatory, but use your FAVORITE kind. I usually go with the classic, but Golden Oreos or those crazy flavored ones would work too. Double Stuf is basically mandatory, fight me.
- Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix: This is the base of our fluff, and it adds a nice vanilla flavor and helps everything thicken up. Make sure it’s INSTANT, not cook-and-serve. HUGE difference.
- Milk: Any kind of milk works here. I usually use 2%, but whole milk will make it extra creamy. Almond milk works too if you’re trying to be all healthy and stuff.
- Cool Whip: This is what makes the fluff, well, fluffy! You can use homemade whipped cream if you’re feeling ambitious, but honestly, Cool Whip is just easier. Let’s be real. I never have time for “whipping cream” from scratch.
Recipe Steps: RULE: You must fill the “Recipe Steps” section with a clear, step-by-step version of the instructions. Do not leave it empty. Summarize the main actions from the ‘How to Make It’ section in concise steps. Each step should start with a verb and follow a numbered format.
- Crush Oreos into small pieces, reserving some larger chunks.
- Whisk together instant pudding mix and milk until thickened.
- Fold in Cool Whip gently.
- Fold in crushed Oreos gently.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least one hour before serving.
What to Serve It With
Honestly, this is good on its own, straight from the bowl. But if you’re feeling fancy, you can serve it with:
- Fresh berries
- Chocolate syrup
- Sprinkles (because sprinkles make everything better)
- Mini chocolate chips
- Graham crackers for dipping
Tips & Mistakes
- Don’t overmix! I said it once, I’ll say it again. Overmixing will deflate the Cool Whip and make your fluff sad and dense.
- Make sure your pudding is set before adding the Cool Whip. Nobody wants a runny fluff!
- Taste as you go! Adjust the sweetness or add more Oreos to your liking. It’s your fluff, make it your own!
- I totally forgot to buy pudding mix once and used vanilla yogurt instead. It wasn’t the same, but it was still pretty good. Desperate times, people!
Storage Tips
Store any leftover Oreo fluff in an airtight container in the fridge. It’ll keep for about 3 days, but let’s be honest, it probably won’t last that long. And yeah, eating it cold is totally fine. I may or may not have had it for breakfast on more than one occasion. Don’t judge!
Variations and Substitutions
- Different Oreos: As I mentioned before, get creative with the Oreos! Peanut Butter Oreos, Mint Oreos, those weird Birthday Cake Oreos… go wild!
- Chocolate Chips: Throw in some mini chocolate chips for an extra chocolatey kick. Or white chocolate chips!
- Sprinkles: Because sprinkles are always a good idea.
- Different Pudding Flavors: Chocolate pudding, cheesecake pudding... the possibilities are endless!
- I once tried to make it with sugar-free pudding mix and it was… not good. Just stick with the regular stuff, trust me.
