Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix

  • 2 cups cold milk

  • 1 (8 oz) container whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed

  • 12 vanilla sandwich cookies (like Golden Oreos), crushed

  • Red food coloring

  • Blue food coloring

  • ½ cup fresh blueberries

  • ½ cup chopped strawberries

  • Red, white, and blue sprinkles (optional)

  • Mini American flags or patriotic decorations (optional)

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk for 2 minutes until thickened.

  • Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until smooth and creamy.

  • Divide the mixture evenly into three bowls. Leave one plain (white), tint one with red food coloring, and the other with blue food coloring. Stir each until color is fully mixed.

  • In clear plastic cups or small dessert cups, start layering: begin with crushed cookies, then spoon in a layer of red pudding, more crushed cookies, a layer of white pudding, more cookies, and finish with blue pudding.

  • Top each cup with remaining cookie crumbs.

  • Garnish with chopped strawberries, blueberries, sprinkles, and decorative toppers if using.

 

  • Chill for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • You can use food-safe gel coloring for more vibrant layers.

  • Try using chocolate sandwich cookies if you prefer a richer flavor.

  • For a dairy-free version, use almond milk and dairy-free whipped topping.
