Description
Lemon Lasagna is a light and refreshing no-bake dessert made with layers of golden Oreo crust, sweetened cream cheese, lemon pudding, and whipped topping. Perfect for spring and summer gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1 package (14.3 oz) golden Oreos, crushed
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1 tub (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), divided
- 2 packages (3.4 oz each) instant lemon pudding mix
- 3 cups cold milk
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest (optional for garnish)
- Additional crushed Oreos or lemon slices (optional for garnish)
Instructions
- Crush the golden Oreos into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9×13 inch pan to form the crust. Chill in the fridge for 10–15 minutes.
- In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and 2 tablespoons of milk until smooth. Fold in half of the whipped topping. Spread this mixture evenly over the crust.
- In another bowl, whisk together the lemon pudding mix and 3 cups of cold milk until thickened (about 2-3 minutes). Spread the pudding over the cream cheese layer.
- Spread the remaining whipped topping over the pudding layer.
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until set.
- Garnish with lemon zest, additional crushed Oreos, or lemon slices before serving if desired.
Notes
- Use freshly squeezed lemon juice or zest for more intense lemon flavor.
- Let the dessert set overnight for best results.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
