Ingredient Notes

Ingredients needed to make an Oreo Dump Cake.

OREO COOKIES – These cookies provide that classic chocolate crunch we all love, offering a delicious contrast to the other ingredients.

SWEETENED CONDENSED MILK – This adds a rich, creamy texture and makes the cake incredibly moist.

WHIPPED TOPPING – I used a tub of Cool Whip, but you can use any whipped topping. The fluffy whipped topping gives the cake an airy lift.

CHOCOLATE CAKE MIX – This serves as the cake base, making the recipe incredibly easy to put together. Use your favorite chocolate cake mix. Look for a box of chocolate fudge cake mix to make this recipe extra fudgy.

UNSALTED BUTTER – Butter gives the cake a moist and rich flavor that complements the chocolate perfectly.

Recipe Success Tips

LAYER EVENLY – Distribute Oreos and cake mix for consistent flavor in each bite.

OIL UP – Generously grease the baking dish to prevent sticking.

TEMPERATURE – Make sure the oven is fully preheated before popping in the cake.

TOOTHPICK TEST – To ensure it’s cooked through, insert a toothpick; it should come out mostly clean.

Serving Ideas

VANILLA ICE CREAM – The creaminess of vanilla ice cream complements the rich chocolate layers of the cake. So go ahead and add a (large) scoop of vanilla ice cream.

CHOCOLATE SYRUP – Drizzling a bit of chocolate syrup over your slice takes the cocoa flavor up a notch without overwhelming the palate. Caramel sauce also works well if you’re looking to mix it up a bit.

Leftovers

STORE – Transfer your Oreo Dump Cake to an airtight container once it is cool. Place a sheet of wax paper or plastic wrap between any stacked slices to prevent them from sticking together. Keep the container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

FREEZE – If you’re looking to enjoy this cake at a later date, consider freezing it. First, let the cake cool completely. Then, cut it into individual slices and wrap each slice tightly in plastic wrap, followed by a layer of aluminum foil. Store these wrapped pieces in a resealable plastic freezer bag. They’ll stay good for up to 3 months.

REHEAT – When the craving hits, and you want to relive the Oreo magic, you have two options. If the cake is stored in the fridge, microwave a slice for about 20-30 seconds. If frozen, it’s best to thaw the slice in the refrigerator overnight before microwaving.
