Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups fresh blueberries
- 2 packages (3.4 oz/96 g) instant lemon pudding mix
- 12 Golden Oreo cookies, coarsely chopped
- 2 cups milk
- 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream
- 3 tbsps sugar
- 1–2 tsp lemon zest
Instructions
- Pudding Preparation: Whisk instant pudding mix with milk until a smooth, velvety consistency develops, allowing the mixture to rest and gradually thicken.
- Cream Transformation: Vigorously beat heavy cream and sugar until robust, glossy peaks form, creating a luxurious whipped foundation.
- Flavor Fusion: Gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding, maintaining a light, airy texture while ensuring complete ingredient integration.
- Textural Embellishment: Introduce plump blueberries, vibrant lemon zest, and crumbled Golden Oreo cookies, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture to create a multi-dimensional sensory experience.
- Chilling and Melding: Transfer the completed salad to a serving container, cover securely, and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours, allowing the ingredients to harmonize and develop a rich, cohesive flavor profile.
Notes
- Chill for Optimal Texture: Refrigerate the salad for at least 4 hours to allow flavors to meld and cookies to soften, creating a more luxurious dessert experience.
- Whip Cream Carefully: Beat heavy cream and sugar until stiff peaks form, ensuring a light and airy texture that will elevate the overall richness of the salad.
- Fold Gently: Use delicate folding motions when combining whipped cream and pudding to maintain the airy consistency and prevent deflating the mixture.
- Fresh Ingredient Impact: Use ripe, plump blueberries and fresh lemon zest to maximize the vibrant flavor profile and add a burst of natural sweetness to the dessert.
