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!
