Ingredients

• 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix
• 3 large eggs
• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 1/2 cup caramel sauce, plus more for drizzling
• 10 Oreo cookies, crushed, plus extra for garnish
• 1/4 cup chopped peanuts (optional)

How to Make Oreo Cookie Cake

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the chocolate cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Mix until smooth and well combined.
3. Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
4. While the cakes are cooling, prepare the whipped cream. In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer on high speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
5. Once the cakes are completely cool, place one layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of whipped cream on top, then drizzle with caramel sauce and sprinkle with crushed Oreos and peanuts, if using.
6. Top with the second layer of cake and repeat the process of adding whipped cream, caramel, and crushed Oreos on top.
7. Finish with a final drizzle of caramel and garnish with additional Oreo cookies. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before slicing to set the whipped cream.

Tips for the Best Results

• Make sure your heavy cream is very cold for the best whipped cream texture.
• Don’t overmix the cake batter; mix just until combined for a light and fluffy cake.
• Allow the cake to chill after decorating; this helps the flavors meld together beautifully.

Easy Variations

• Swap the chocolate cake for a vanilla or red velvet base for a different flavor profile.
• Add chocolate chips to the batter for an extra chocolatey experience.
• Substitute the whipped cream for cream cheese frosting for a tangy twist.

What to Serve With It

• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a classic pairing.
• Fresh berries to balance the sweetness.
• A drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra indulgent touch.
