  4. Add a layer of the cheesecake filling, spreading it evenly with a spoon.
  5. Repeat the layering process, alternating Oreo crumbs and cheesecake filling, until the glass is full, finishing with a cheesecake layer on top.
  6. Top the trifle with a dollop of whipped cream, a sprinkle of crushed Oreo crumbs, or a mini Oreo for a finishing touch.
