FAQs

Can I make this dessert ahead of time?

Yes, this cheesecake lasagna actually benefits from chilling overnight, allowing the flavors to meld and the layers to set for cleaner slices.

What if I don’t have lemon Oreos?

If lemon Oreos aren’t available, you can use vanilla wafers or graham crackers for the cookie layers. The flavor will be slightly different but still delicious.
