Oreo Layer Dessert

A while back my work team decided to have a little potluck lunch. Um. I’m going to go ahead and say we knocked it out of the park:

Our spread was siiiiiick. Everyone really stepped up — needless to say I was impressed.

As we were eating, I kept hearing this buzz about my teammate Kelsey’s oreo dessert. Words in line with “to die for” “seriously don’t miss this” “i went back for seconds … then thirds” were being thrown around repeatedly. So I jumped on board and the comments were accurate.

Oreo Layer Dessert

1 pkg of regular Oreos
