Pistachio Dreamboat Dessert

Dessert

Today, we are celebrating something awesome. Lisa, from Wine and Glue is having a baby! I just adore this girl so much. Not only is she a super talented blogger that’s always been ridiculously sweet to me, but do you have any idea how hilarious this girl is? Her statuses on Facebook are my favorite. She cracks me up every time. Anyway, a few of us bloggers are getting together to throw her a surprise baby shower today and I’m so excited to share my recipe with you! So many people have loved our Vanilla Dreamboat Dessert that I wanted to take it up a notch and make a pistachio version. And if I’m being completely honest? I think I like the pistachio version more than the vanilla version!

Print Recipe
Makes 1 – 9×13 inch pan
Recipe adapted from Center Cut Cook

Ingredients:
  • 1 pkg regular golden Oreos {36 cookies}
  • 6 Tbsp. salted butter, melted
  • 1 pkg. {8 oz.} cream cheese, softened
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 Tbsp. cold milk {I use 1%}
  • 1 {16 oz.} tub whipped topping, divided
  • 2 pkgs {3.4 oz.} instant pistachio pudding
  • 3 & 1/4 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup pistachios, shelled and chopped
Directions:
  1. Pulse Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs are formed. Add the butter and mix until the crumbs are fully coated. Press the crumbs into an ungreased 9×13 in baking dish or pan. Place the pan in the refrigerator while you work on the additional layers.
  2. In a medium bowl, whip the cream cheese until light and fluffy. Add 2 Tbsp. milk and the sugar and mix well. Fold in 2 & 1/2 cups whipped topping. Spread this mixture over the Oreo crust.
  3. In another bowl, combine the pistachio pudding with the 3 & 1/4 cups milk and whisk until pudding starts to thicken. Spread the pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer. Let the dessert rest for about 5 minutes, so the pudding can firm up completely.
  4. Spread the remaining whipped topping over the pudding layer and sprinkle the chopped pistachios on top.
  5. Place in the freezer for 1 hour or let refrigerate for 4 hours before serving.

    Oh, thank you Sarah!! This is such an overwhelming and wonderful surprise! PS That photo you posted of you and your sweet girl the other day next to the one of you at 36 weeks (where I’m at now) made me green with envy! You look AWESOME!! Here’s hoping I look as good 36 weeks out 🙂 But with this dessert, I have my doubts, I want to eat the whole thing!!
