This is probably the easiest dessert I’ve ever had to make! Plus, it’s absolutely delicious! (Page 2 ) | March 29, 2025

Ingredients:
1 can cherry pie filling
1 package Oreo cookies
1 jar Cool Whip (or similar whipped topping)
1 package instant chocolate pudding mix
2 cups milk (for pudding)
Directions:
Make the pudding: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and milk until smooth. Let sit for a few minutes to thicken.
Layer the Oreos: Line the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish with a layer of Oreo cookies. You may need to break some of the cookies to fit into the dish.

Add the pudding layer: Spread half of the thickened chocolate pudding over the Oreo layer.

Add the whipped topping layer: Spread half of the whipped cream over the pudding layer.
Add Cherry Pie Filling: Spoon half of the cherry pie filling over the whipped cream layer, spreading evenly.
Repeat Layers: Repeat layers, adding another layer of Oreos, remaining chocolate pudding, more whipped cream, and remaining cherry pie filling.
Chill Cake: Cover pan with plastic wrap and chill frosted cake for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow cookies to soften and flavors to blend. Serve
: Once cooled, cut into squares and serve. Enjoy your Black Forest Frosted Cake!
Variations and Tips: Swap out the Oreos for chocolate graham crackers for a different texture and a less sweet base.
Fresh Cherries: Use pitted fresh cherries mixed with a little sugar and lemon juice in place of cherry pie filling for a fresher, less sweet cherry layer.
Chocolate Chips: Sprinkle chocolate chips between layers or on top of the cake for more chocolate flavor and texture.
Cream Cheese Layer: Mix cream cheese with powdered sugar and a little vanilla extract, then layer it into the cake for a creamy, tangy addition.

Coffee or Kirsch: Brush the Oreo or graham cracker layers with a small amount of strong coffee or Kirsch (cherry brandy) to add depth of flavor.
