- Beat until the mixture is thick and forms stiff peaks.
Assembling the Trifle
- Place Oreo cookies into a gallon size plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin to form small crumbles.
- Spoon the cheesecake mixture and whipped cream mixture into large piping bags.
- Begin layering in four lowball glasses starting with cookie crumbs, followed by cheesecake mixture, and then whipped cream mixture.
- Repeat the layering with a second layer of cookie crumbs and cheesecake mixture.
- Using an open star piping tip, pipe a swirl of whipped cream on top of each glass.
- Serve with a sprinkle of crushed cookies on top.
Notes
Covered tightly, the trifle will keep for up to 3 days. Let the flavors deepen overnight for best results.
