BEST CHOCOLATE OREO DREAM CAKE
INGREDIENTS:
For the Cake
1 Boxed chocolate cake
1 cup Vegetable oil
1 cup Full Fat Sour Cream
4 beaten Eggs
1 tsp. Vanilla
1 Jello chocolate pudding package
For the Filling
8 oz. Cream Cheese, softened
1/2 cup Sugar
2 cups Cool Whip
12 Oreos roughly chopped
For the Icing
1/3 cup. Cocoa
6 Tbs. Butter, softened
1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla
5-6 Tbs. Milk
4 1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
DIRECTIONS:
Preheat oven to 350
For the cake, combine everything and mix with a hand mixer until creamy. (Beat the eggs just a bit with a fork before you mix them in) Â The batter will be thick. Â Coat 2 round 9 in baking pans with parchment paper and spoon the thick mix into the pans. Â Bake in the oven for 30-40 min. Â I checked mine with a toothpick after 33 minutes and it was finished. Â Just watch yours really close.
When they are done remove from oven and place pans on a cooling rack. Â After 10 minutes hold the sides of the pastry paper and remove the cakes from the pans. Â Let sit on cooling rack until completely cooled.
For the filling mix the cream cheese and sugar together with a hand mixer until smooth. Â Then add everything else in and mix until well combined. Â (I stick my oreos in a plastic bag and hit it with my wooden rolling pin to get the easy oreo bits). Â I normally finish by mixing with a wooden spoon so everything is pressed out and all the chunks from the cream cheese are smooth. Â You want every inch to have oreo bits. Â You are going to put this in the middle of your 2 chocolate cakes, so now itâs time to prepare your cakes.
Take the first cake while itâs sitting up and cover the top of the cake with the oreo cream. Â Spread it around to cover the whole cake. Â Take your 2nd cake, turn it upside and place on top of the cream. Â Continue to spread the cream around so you canât see any spaces through one side of the cake to the other. Â Once your cake is smooth and the cream has filled your cake itâs time to make the frosting.
For the frosting put everything in a bowl and mix with a hand mixer until it gets to your desired consistency. Â I normally add 1 Tbs. of milk at a time so it doesnât get to runny. Â Donât worry if it does though, because you can thicken it by just adding a but more powdered sugar. Â When you get the chocolatey taste and consistency that you want, you are going to frost your entire cake. Â Let is sit in the fridge for about 1 hour before serving and youâre done.
I promise you will be the Mom of the century!!! Â This is the most amazing cake, and just adding those few extras to the boxed cake mix makes this taste like a bakery cake! Â Enjoy!
