I absolutely love this dessert however can you scrap out the Oreo cream to make it less sweet?
Yes, you could!
I love this! It looks so complicated but was SO EASY to make!
Just made this no-bake Pumpkin Lasagna! Crunchy crust, creamy layers—fall in every bite! It’s a favorite treat, a new family favorite.
Oh YES! This is the perfect fall dessert!
Are you able to freeze this ?
LOVE YOUR RECIPES!!!
Thank you!!
We love the delight and lasagna! Love your site and have made many of your recipes! They are all awesome and such easy to follow directions! Love so many of your great dishes and desserts are pantry ingredient friendly. Wanted to say thanks for the homemade pumpkin pudding recipe. I have used in pumpkin parfaits. Thanks for sharing with us and a Happy Easter to you and your family.
Thank you!! I’m so happy to hear you enjoy the recipes. Thanks for being here and giving a bunch of them a try! Happy Easter to you as well!
About how many grams/cups would 2 rows of Oreos equal? I’d rather use ginger snaps and have no idea how many is equivalent. Thanks!
Erin, You probably do not need this info anymore, but maybe another person will: 2 rows of Oreos is about 10 ounces.
Amazing! We loved this recipe! It was gone fast! I fed my parents and gave some to my neighbor and they even asked for the recipe! This will definitely go in my recipe book. Thanks again!
Hooray!! So happy to hear that. Thanks for giving the recipe a try!
stayed as a pudding consistency
Sorry to hear that! It should have set up a bit more for you. But thanks for giving the recipe a try and for the feedback.
I’ve made this before and had the 2 packages of instant pumpkin pudding mix. I got 2 on Amazon, but had to use one at Thanksgiving.
Question: I have 1 pumpkin pudding mix and one vanilla. I’m a little confused about the amounts of other ingredients to use. Can you help?
You can definitely use a pumpkin pudding and vanilla pudding mix. The flavor would be slightly different, but still really yummy I imagine! As far as amount of other ingredients, they are all listed out in the recipe card at the bottom of the post. Hopefully they are pretty easy to determine. The “rows” of Oreos just mean the rows from the package. The unsalted butter (8 Tbsp) is one stick. The cream cheese (8 oz) is one brick. The butter (1/2 cup) is also one stick. Hopefully that helps a little!
Absolutely incredible! Also, love how simple the recipe is.
Very good
Such a delicious Thanksgiving dessert!
So easy to make and so yummy! This was a hit with everyone!!
This couldn’t be an easier dish with the instant pudding and Graham cracker crust. A must save for your last minute dessert!
I made this using the recipe for pumpkin pudding because I could find pumpkin pudding at the store. I must not need to add the 3 cups of milk if I use evaporated milk, correct? This recipe is confusing when it comes to that.
Yes, that’s correct. The homemade pumpkin pudding will take place of the instant pudding box mixed with the milk. So yes, just the evaporated milk called for in the homemade pudding recipe. 🙂
I wish i read the comments first…i added the milk with the evaporated milk for the pudding mixture…but..my husband is a quick thinker we scraped off the runny mess i made and added more vanilla pudding and pumpkin spice with the mixture and voila seems fixed. At least now i know lol.
What a good thinker!! Hope the lasanga turned out!
Perfect for thanksgiving, was so yummy!
Perfect for thanksgiving!
OMG Hands down the best dessert I have ever made. Everyone was raving about it! I used gingersnaps for the bottom crust and added 1/2 tsp more of the pumpkin pie spice! Delicious…
Best thing to hear!! Thank you so much for letting me know that!
I couldn’t find pumpkin pudding. So I’m making homemade version. Do I still need to add the 3 cups milk plus the can of evap milk?
Not sure if you were following the recipe for the homemade on this post or your own, but if you were following the one I shared, you would just use what I listed. You wouldn’t be adding milk. But, it’s hard to know, if you are using your own recipe, since I won’t know what’s in it.
What did you end up doing? Using the evaporated Milk and the 3 cups of regular milk?
If you make your own pumpkin pudding mix, do not use 3 cups of milk when making the pumpkin layer. Cut the milk at least in half. 3 cups of milk made it like soup.
EXcellent !
Did not expect it to be so good!
Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!
You are so welcome! I am so glad you tried it 🙂
What can I use instead of cream cheese? I can’t have dairy. Thank YOU.
Hmm..that’s a good question! I have never left it out. Have you tried googling what good substitutes would be? That would be my suggestion. Have you tried making a dairy free cream cheese?
Wow, wow, wow, this was so so good! Used gingersnap cookies for the crust & the recipe above for the pumpkin LAYER since I couldn’t find the pudding, everyone raved about it, this is a keeper!!
Glad it’s a keeper!! Thank you so much for letting me know!
on the golden oreo do you remove the stuffing in middle of them then you crush up the cookies i can’t fine pumpkin oreos here where i live they are seasonal cookies so you crushed up gloden oreos and gingersnaps together is that how it works
You do leave the cream in. I haven’t tried mixing the golden with gingersnaps, but that might work!
I am an australian. We like to use fresh ingredients, not canned or packaged. i love pumpkin, so how would i make this dessert using fresh cooked and mashed pumpkin? philly cream cheese, no problem, crushed biscuits no problem, but how to make a pumpkin pudding topping please. as far as i know we don’t have pumpkin pudding packaged. i have never seen canned pumpkin here either, but pumpkins are plentiful.
That is a great question. I haven’t tried making fresh pumpkin. I would google or use Pinterest. I’m sorry, I wish I was an expert about making fresh pumpkin filling & pudding.
Try homemade vanilla pudding recipe and add the cooked mashed pumpkin. You may want to make it ahead of time.
Sounds yummy! Thanks for sharing!
This site is the best love all the stuff on here
You are so nice!! Thank you for saying that! I am glad you are around!
The pumpkin lasagna crust CAN be made with cinnamon graham crackers also.
Totally can 🙂 Thank you!
I can’t find pumpkin pudding in my area where can i found some
Hmm…Usually, at this time I don’t have a problem finding it in my grocery stores, but if you can’t. You might have to order it online?? I hope you find it!
My husband doesn’t love pumpkin flavored anything and he can’t get enough of this lasagna!!
a pumpkin fan, but of all the pumpkin desserts I’ve eaten, this is by far my favorite. The cream cheese layer just puts it over the top.
I agree!!! It is always a hit! Thank you for letting me know!
What is the serving size?
It just depends on how big you cut/scoop it 🙂
How far ahead can I make this dessert?
I wouldn’t make it any more than a day ahead. Fresh is always best 🙂
That looks amazing, what a shame they don’t sell pumpkin or pumpkin oreos here in Canada. I guess I need someone to send me a care package, lol.
It sounds like you do 🙂 You are missing out! Hope you find someone to send you some 🙂
Hello! I am going to make this for thanksgiving. Will I need about 2 rows of Golden Oreos (10 cookies or so) and 10 ginger snap cookies for the crust? I am a little confused. I am unable to find pumpkin Oreos at the store.
Yes, I don’t have a count of how many oreos are in a row, but it is 2 rows of golden ores & about the same in gingersnaps, crushed. Hope that helps 🙂
Looking forward to making this dessert. First, if you can’t find them in stores, Pumpkin Pudding and Pumpkin Oreos can be ordered fm Amazon.com. Second, I’d like to use fresh whipped cream vs Cool Whip.
How much Heavy Cream would I need to whip? And, do I need to add a stabililizer to it? If so, what do you recommend? Thank you for this and all your delicious recipes.
gonna try this on the top of baked pumpkin cheesecake pie. i use a cake mix crust, and bake it as usual. when it cools, gonna have to use your recipe on the top. got to be great!
I’d love to know how it turns out! Hope you like it!
Has anybody tried using just pumpkin oreos?
Thank you looks yummy
You are welcome! It is 😉
This Pumpkin Lasagna seems really interesting – easy to make using ingredients readily available at home. I’m sure my kids will love this quick, delicious dessert. Please keep sharing such interesting recipes more often!
I will 🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by! If you love pumpkin, you’ll love this!
This dessert was delectable. My brothers Mother-n- law shared this with me this year 2016. So I just happened to notice a small display at our local winco 28th these cookies I grabbed 2 pkg just in case. But I could not find the pumpkin spice pudding. So I went to Walmart nothing so I gave up just then I looked one more time and up in a corner three new flavors bam pumpkin spice. So I made a test run. They begged for more. Well Thanksgiving I won over there hearts. We might only get this once a year but we can’t wait.
So, glad you found the pudding!! Yay! It sure is a “hit” recipe!! Thanks so much for making it and letting me know!!
So i couldnt find pumpkin oreos should i just use the whole pack of golden oreos? Also do i scrap the frosting off the oreos or just leave the as is & grind them??
Can this be made the day before?
It can, but I would maybe add the cool whip maybe the day of. Thanks so much!!
I was able to find the pumpkin spice pudding but I could not find pumpkin Oreos. How much pumpkin spice should I add to the Golden Oreo mixture?
I haven’t tried just adding spice the the oreos, so really I’m not sure. I wouldn’t over do it, but I guess you could add as little or as much as you’d like. Start with a teaspoon? Hope that helps! I’d love to know how it comes out! Thank you!
Wow I’ve never seen something like this before! I love the idea, and the fact that you call it pumpkin lasagna definitely catches the eye! Great recipe!
Thank you so much!!! I hope you give it a try and love it as much as we do!! Thanks for stopping by!
I see in the recipie that you have Philadelphia in all caps, does this mean you would only suggest the use of this brand or can we use any brand? (I bought a local cream cheese is why I am asking). Thanks a bunch!
It can be any 🙂 Hope you like it!! Thank you!
Is there anything I can use in place of Cream Cheese in most of these Yummy sounding recipes? I am alergic it cream cheese. So there are so many recipes for desserts I can not make because of this. Would love to hear if there is.
Thank you
I wish I knew. I read that you could use equal part pureed cottage cheese or equal part plain yogurt, strained overnight in a cheesecloth. Hope those help. Google has suggestions. Hope you find something!! Thanks for stopping by!
Use ricotta or mascarpone.
If I halve the recipe, would I use an 8 x 8 pan?
Yes 🙂 Hope you like it!! Thanks for stopping by!
This was delicious and easy to make…I wasn’t able to get pumpkin pudding. So I used vanilla pudding and added pumpkin pie filling. It was a huge hit at my family thanksgiving.
Great idea using the vanilla and pie filling!! So glad it was a hit!! Thank you!
So did you use the milk, plus the 2 puddings then a can of pumpkin?
Or did you just use the dry pudding plus pumpkin?
It’s the pudding mix combined with the 3 cups milk. Don’t make the pudding, then add milk. The pudding is also pudding flavor, there isn’t pumpkin in the recipe, besides the pudding and oreos. Hope you enjoy!!
I used 2 packs of vanilla pudding with 2 cups of milk and 1 can of pumpkin pie filling
After seeing this recipe I have been looking for pumpkin pudding found the cookies but no pudding. Today I found pumpkin pudding at Wal-mart, bought the cookies again so I no what I will be doing tomorrow. Can’t wait to try it.
So glad you found it!!! Hope you like it, as much as we do! Thanks so much!!
… Are you only supposed to use the cookie part of the Oreo and not the cream? Looking forward to making this really soon!
You use the whole oreo 🙂 Let me know what you think!! Thank you!
Absolutely DELISH!!! Wonderful for the Fall season.
Thank you!! It has become our fav!!
Approxmiately how many cookies of each would that be?
It’s maybe close to 10 each 🙂 Thanks for stopping by and hope you like!!
Fantastic
Thanks so much for stopping by!!!
Looks so yummy! I have to try it.
It is!! I’d love to know what you think! Thanks for stopping by!
So here in canada we either dint have it or its super hard to find pumpkin oreos or pudding. So instead I did try pumpkin puree instead. I mixed it with vanilla pudding spiced it with a bit of pumpkin spice and for the bottom I just used golden oreos. Turned out delicious and I will definitely be making it again!!!
I’m so glad you found a solution!! That sounds perfect!! Thanks for letting me know!
I was just wondering you say to use 2 sleeves of the pumpkin Oreo and the vanilla Oreo, both of mine are different sizes so do you still just used 2 sleeves of each kind? The pumpkin Oreo cookies are limited edition and they are a smaller pack than the regular vanilla Oreo cookies.
Yes, I just try to use equal amounts. Hope you like it, as much as we do!!
do you leave the filling in the oreos when you crush them?
Yes 🙂 Makes it more creamy! Hope you like it as much as we do!! Thanks for stopping by!
Why couldn’t you make this using your personal pumpkin pie filling receipe that you hvave precooked? I don’t like the instant pumpkin pudding.
I’m sure you could. I personally haven’t tried, but I’d love to know how it tastes! Thanks so much!
Could you kindly tell me how far in advance can I make this pumpkin lasagna recipe? Thank you
Mariann
I would probably just make this, no sooner than the morning of. That’s just me, though! Not sure what would happen if it was made too far in advance. Hope that helps!! Hope you like it!!
I bought all the supplies and then started looking for pumpkin pudding. I couldn’t find it anywhere. I made vanilla and added a little pumpkin pie spice and I used a little less milk and added pumpkin pie dairy creamer. I haven’t tried it yet. its setting up in the fridge. The “homemade pumpkin pudding” tastes great but it doesn’t have the same golden color as the crust.
I work at Jewel (an Albertsons company). They got in a small shipment with a little cardboard stand 4 days ago and I only got one box. Had to use vanilla and pumpkin pie spice for the rest of the mixture.
With Fall on it’s way these are wonderful desserts. I’ll be on the lookout for pumpkin pudding now. This just might be a bigger hit than pumpkin pie!
Thank so much!! Yes, you should be able to find it now or soon!! We love this!
OMG! I can’t wait to try some of these recipes! Pumpkin season should never expire! I can’t wait to make some soft pumpkin cookies! It’s been to hot here to turn on the oven, so baking hasn’t been on my list!
Thank you so much!! You are right about the pumpkin season!! Hope you enjoy this recipe!!
How much pumpkin spice would you add if you can’t use that flavor of oreo?
I added about 3 teaspoons (1 tablespoon) to regular vanilla pudding mix (two 3.9 oz boxes). It tasted great!
Could you use real pumpkin pie filling instead of pumpkin pudding???
I haven’t tried that, so not sure how it would turn out, but I’d love to know if you give that a try!! I wish I knew how much you’d add, but I guess the same amount as pudding. Let me know how it comes out. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Will make this for our golf outing potluck. I’m sure they will love it!!
I bet they will!! Thanks so much for stopping by! Have fun!
My kids love pumpkin, so I’m going to check this out! It looks yummy!! Can’t wait to try it!
If they love pumpkin, they’ll love this! Let me know what they think!
Never heard of oreo goldens and oreo pumpkins. Could you just make a gram cracker crust?
I’m sure that would be just fine. I haven’t done that, but I’d love to know what you think! If you find the oreos in the store, you’ll see all the other flavors they have, in case you want to use those. Thanks so much!
I couldnt find pumpkin oreos so should i just use golden oreos also do i scrap the frosting or leave as is?
Yes, you can and leave the frosting 🙂 Enjoy!!!
You can try ginger snaps. I thinks that would work.
I just picked up the golden and the limited edition pumpkin ores at Jewel.
So glad you found them!!! Thanks for sharing!!
This sounds amazing. I plan on making it soon to try. Then I want to make it for Thanksgiving instead of regular pumpkin pie. Thank you
It is delish!! And, perfect for Thanksgiving!! Thanks so much!
