Ingredients
  

For the Mousse
  • 1 package Oreo cookies For the chocolate crunch and speckled look
  • 2 cups heavy cream Whipped to soft peaks
  • 1 cup powdered sugar To sweeten and blend smoothly
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract To enhance flavor
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened Base for the mousse

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Crush the Oreos in a food processor or a sturdy bag using a rolling pin, aiming for mostly fine crumbs with a few small pieces.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth and lump-free.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks, ensuring it becomes thick and billowy.
  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined and fluffy.
  5. Fold in the crushed Oreos just until evenly distributed.
  6. Spoon the mixture into serving cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.

Notes

It’s best served well-chilled, and for a pretty presentation, reserve some Oreo crumbs for topping before serving. Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps, and aim for soft peaks to maintain the mousse’s light texture.
