Oreo S’mores Trifle is the no-bake dessert mashup you didn’t know you needed — until now. It takes everything you love about s’mores and Oreo cookies and layers them into a creamy, crunchy, chocolaty masterpiece that looks impressive but is ridiculously easy to make. Each spoonful is a mix of gooey marshmallow fluff, crushed Oreos, silky chocolate pudding, and whipped cream, with layers of crushed graham crackers for that classic campfire nostalgia.
This is the kind of dessert you make when you want a guaranteed crowd-pleaser with zero oven time. It’s perfect for parties, holidays, BBQs, or anytime you want something decadent but fuss-free. With its rich chocolate layers and fluffy, toasty marshmallow topping, this trifle delivers bold flavor in every bite.
Trifles are ideal for make-ahead desserts, and this one is no exception. You can assemble it in individual cups or a large trifle bowl — both versions show off the beautiful layers and textures. It’s dramatic, fun to look at, and even more fun to eat.
At the heart of this dessert is contrast: crunchy cookies, silky pudding, airy whipped topping, and that sweet toasted marshmallow cream. The crushed graham crackers ground it in that unmistakable s’mores flavor profile, while the Oreos bring their own rich, chocolatey punch.
The best part? You don’t have to toast a single marshmallow or bake anything. The marshmallow layer is made with a mixture of marshmallow creme and whipped topping for a luscious, pillowy texture that still captures that nostalgic sweetness.
And while this dessert feels indulgent, it’s not overly heavy. The whipped cream and marshmallow layers keep things light, and the balance of textures means it doesn’t feel like just another pudding cup. It’s got structure, variety, and bite.
This recipe is also super flexible. Want to add peanut butter cups or chocolate chips? Go for it. Prefer chocolate graham crackers? Swap them in. Want to make it dairy-free? Use coconut whipped topping and a plant-based pudding mix. It’s endlessly customizable.
Because it’s no-bake, kids can help with every step — from crushing cookies to layering the ingredients. It’s a great project for weekends or family gatherings, and it looks like a professional dessert when finished.
And if you’re hosting a party, this is a smart choice. You can make it the day before and keep it chilled until serving. It travels well, serves a crowd, and there’s no stress about temperature or timing.
Every bite of this Oreo S’mores Trifle brings a mix of childhood joy and over-the-top indulgence. It’s the kind of dessert you make when you want to impress without lifting a finger in the kitchen.
It’s also just plain fun. Layers of Oreos and graham crackers, fluffy clouds of whipped topping, and glossy chocolate pudding come together to make something you can’t stop eating.
And it’s worth noting: this is the kind of dessert people ask for seconds of — and then the recipe. It hits all the right notes of sweet, creamy, crunchy, and chocolatey, with just the right touch of nostalgia.
From birthdays to summer parties, this Oreo S’mores Trifle is your go-to treat when you want maximum impact with minimal effort. It looks like a dream and tastes even better.
