Oreo Layer Dessert

This dessert was given a 5 star rating by everyone in my family. It was so good!  I had a love/hate relationship with the fact that it wasn't a heavy dish. I loved it because it didn't sit like a brick in my stomach. I hated it because it made me keep eating and eating eating it!
