# Steps:
01 -
Pulse Golden Oreos in a food processor until fine crumbs form. If unavailable, crush cookies in a sealed bag with a rolling pin. Combine crumbs with melted butter until evenly moistened.

Press the cookie crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 23 x 33 cm baking dish to create an even crust. Refrigerate until set and chilled.

Using a hand mixer, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and 240 grams of Cool Whip until smooth and creamy. Spread evenly over the chilled crust.
04 -
In a separate bowl, whisk pudding mix with whole milk until thickened. Fold in 240 grams of Cool Whip gently to lighten the mixture. Spread evenly over the cream cheese layer.
05 -
Arrange sliced strawberries in a single, even layer over the cheesecake pudding to cover the surface completely.
06 -
Chill the assembled dessert for a minimum of 2 hours until fully set and flavors meld.
07 -
Cut into squares and serve chilled. Optionally garnish with whipped cream and a fresh strawberry slice.
# Notes:

Use different flavored pudding mixes or cookie bases for variation. Fresh berries can be substituted based on seasonality. Prepare in advance to allow adequate chilling time.
