Notes
*For best results, use an 8-ounce brick of full-fat cream cheese (not cream cheese in the tub).**You can use any kind of Oreo cookies in this recipe. I like to change it up by using Golden, peanut butter, mint, or java chip.Becky's Top Tips:
Let the cream cheese soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes prior to making this recipe.
Make sure the whipped topping is thawed before folding into the dip.
Use crushed Oreos, not crumbs. To easily crush Oreos, place them into a Ziplock bag and use a rolling pin to crush them, or pulse them a few times in a food processor.
Add the Oreos before serving so the cookies stay crunchy. If you aren't serving this dip right away, make the recipe through step 4. When you're ready to serve, add the Oreo cookies and enjoy.
You can also add up to ½ cup of chocolate chips or sprinkles to the dip along with the Oreos for extra texture and flavor.
Storage: Store Oreo dip in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
