# Instructions:

Process golden Oreos until finely ground. Blend with melted butter, salt, and red gel food coloring until evenly combined. Press the mixture into a springform pan to create an even layer with slightly raised edges. Freeze to solidify the crust.

Whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until soft peaks form. Ensure the texture is smooth and billowy.

Beat cream cheese until completely smooth. Add sugar and vanilla, and beat for five minutes to remove lumps. Fold in half of the whipped cream to lighten the mixture.

Prepare blue raspberry JellO according to package instructions and cool until room temperature. Fold in the remaining whipped cream to create a smooth blue layer.

Layer the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust. Add the blue JellO layer carefully on top. Chill for at least 5 hours to set.

Pipe cream cheese frosting swirls around the edges. Arrange fresh strawberries and blueberries in a decorative pattern on top.
