No-Bake Christmas Lasagna


  • Author: Imili Johnson
  • Total Time: 2 hours 20 minutes (including chilling)

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

The Cookie Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups crushed graham crackers or holiday Oreos
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

The Cheesecake Layer:

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)

The Pudding Layer:

  • 1 package (3.9 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • Red and green food coloring

The Whipped Topping Layer:

  • 2 cups whipped topping
  • 1/4 cup holiday sprinkles

Garnishing:

  • Holiday sprinkles
  • Crushed candy canes
  • White chocolate shavings

Instructions

Preparation:

1: Make the Cookie Crust

  • Combine the crushed graham crackers or Oreos with melted butter in a medium bowl. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
  • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish to form the crust. Place it in the refrigerator to set while preparing the other layers.

2: Prepare the Cheesecake Layer

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  • Gently fold in the whipped topping to make the cheesecake layer light and fluffy.
  • Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled crust and return it to the refrigerator.

3: Make the Pudding Layer

  • In a medium bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk until thickened, about 2 minutes.
  • Divide the pudding into two bowls. Add red food coloring to one and green food coloring to the other, stirring until the colors are vibrant.
  • Spread the green pudding evenly over the cheesecake layer, then add the red pudding on top of the green layer. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes to allow the layers to set.

4: Add the Whipped Topping Layer

  • Spread a thick layer of whipped topping over the red pudding layer, smoothing it out with a spatula.
  • Sprinkle holiday sprinkles evenly over the top for a festive finish.

5: Garnish and Serve

  • Garnish with additional sprinkles, crushed candy canes, or white chocolate shavings for extra holiday flair.
  • Chill for at least 2 hours (or overnight) before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use vibrant food coloring: Bright red and green layers create a visually stunning dessert. Adjust the intensity of the colors as desired.
  • Chill thoroughly: Chilling the dessert for at least 2 hours helps the layers set and makes slicing easier.
  • Use holiday-themed toppings: Choose sprinkles, crushed peppermint, or edible glitter to match your Christmas theme.
  • Prep Time: 20 minutes (plus chilling time)
