    My husband makes something similar to this, but with Oreos instead of graham crackers. It’s delicious!

    • kim

      I like the oreo idea!

    • Gerta

      Jennifer, does your husband leave the Oreos whole or does he twist them apart?

      • Jennifer

        We have done it both ways, but leaving them together is our favorite 🙂

        • Julie

          Lina thanks so much for the original recipe and Jennifer thanks for the oreo comment, I made this using double stuff oreos, it was incredible. I made 1 for a get together and it was all gone so today I am making another 1 because I thought we would have some leftover. ( I was wrong)

    I wish there was a low calorie low carb version of this one! Looks delicious!

    • LindaK

      Was wondering the same thing. I don’t suppose Cool Whip would work?

  8. Angela

    I find Mascarpone at Kroger in the deli area.

  9. justme

    This cake is amazing! I made it with the Mascarpone cheese and used a hershey bar and a heath bar. Honestly this is my new go to cake for pot lucks or anything where I need to bring a dessert! Thank you for such a wonderful recipe!

    How long can you keep this cake in the fridge since it’s made with whipped cream?
