A quick and easy no-bake Oreo flag cake with creamy layers of cream cheese filling and whipped cream, decorated with fresh berries to celebrate the 4th of July. Perfect for last-minute celebrations and crowd-pleasing dessert.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 36 Oreo cookies (about 3 sleeves) – crushed into coarse crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted (optional)
  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
  • ½ cup (60 g) powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Fresh strawberries, sliced
  • Blueberries
  • Extra whole Oreo cookies for decoration

Instructions

  1. Place the Oreo cookies in a food processor and pulse until coarse crumbs form, or crush in a sealed plastic bag with a rolling pin. Mix crumbs with melted butter and set aside.
  2. Beat softened cream cheese in a medium bowl until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and beat until combined.
  3. Whip cold heavy cream in a large bowl until stiff peaks form, being careful not to overbeat.
  4. Gently fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula to keep it airy.
  5. In a 9×13-inch pan, spread a thin layer of the creamy filling, then sprinkle a layer of Oreo crumbs. Repeat layering 3-4 times, finishing with a cream filling layer.
  6. Decorate the top with sliced strawberries arranged in stripes, blueberries clustered in the top left corner, and whole or broken Oreos to mimic stars.
  7. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
  8. Slice into squares and serve chilled.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps. Chill bowl and beaters before whipping cream for best results. Fold whipped cream gently to keep mixture airy. Chill cake for at least 4 hours for firm layers and easy slicing. Can be made dairy-free by substituting vegan cream cheese and coconut whipped cream.
