A quick and easy no-bake icebox cake featuring layers of Oreo cookies, fluffy whipped cream, and fresh strawberries and blueberries, perfect for summer celebrations.

Ingredients

Scale
  • About 36 Oreo Cookies (regular or Double Stuf)
  • 2 cups (480 ml) Heavy Whipping Cream, cold
  • 1/2 cup (60 g) Powdered Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1 cup (about 150 g) Fresh Strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup (about 150 g) Fresh Blueberries
  • Optional: Mint leaves for garnish
  • Optional: Splash of lemon juice on berries

Instructions

  1. Chill mixing bowl and beaters in the fridge for 10 minutes.
  2. Pour 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream into the bowl. Add 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Whip on medium-high speed for 3-5 minutes until stiff peaks form.
  3. Decide to layer whole or crushed Oreos. If crushing, place cookies in a ziplock bag and gently bash with a rolling pin to create chunks.
  4. Rinse and slice strawberries; pat all berries dry to avoid extra moisture.
  5. In an 8×8 inch (20×20 cm) dish, spread a thin layer of whipped cream. Arrange a layer of Oreo cookies on the bottom.
  6. Spread about 1/3 cup whipped cream over the cookies, then scatter sliced strawberries and blueberries evenly on top.
  7. Repeat layering two more times: cookies, cream, berries. Finish with a thick layer of whipped cream and save some berries for garnish.
  8. Cover with plastic wrap or lid and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  9. Before serving, garnish with remaining berries and optional mint leaves. Slice with a sharp knife dipped in hot water for clean edges.
  10. Keep refrigerated until ready to serve.

Notes

Chill bowl and beaters before whipping cream to help it thicken faster. Avoid overwhipping cream to prevent it turning buttery. Layer quickly to prevent uneven cookie absorption. Use fresh berries for best texture; frozen berries must be thawed and drained. For dairy-free, substitute heavy cream with coconut cream and use dairy-free Oreo-style cookies. Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days or freeze for up to a week, thawing overnight.
