Oreo Sheet Cake

Our Oreo Sheet Cake is a fun and delightful treat that perfectly blends the rich flavors of chocolate with the crunch of Oreos, making it a must-try for any occasion.

We make a quick and easy chocolate batter from scratch, bake it, then make a classic Oreo pudding filling and finish it off with a cream topping and crushed Oreos.

BUTTER – Adds richness and moisture to the cake, ensuring a tender crumb and enhancing the flavor of the chocolate.

SUGAR – I used granulated sugar for the batter. This sweetens the cake and contributes to its moist texture. During baking, sugar also helps the cake to develop a tender crumb. And for the whipped cream topping, I used a bit of powdered sugar, which helps to make a non-grainy, smooth whipped cream topping. Remember if you don’t have powdered sugar, you can always toss regular sugar in a blender and pulse until finely ground.

EGGS – Essential for structure, they help bind the ingredients together and contribute to the cake’s rise and fluffiness.

MILK – The milk gets divided. We use one cup for the batter, it’s another key ingredient that helps to make a moist and tender cake. The remaining 4 cups are for the pudding mix. Simply mix the pudding mix and milk and follow the box instructions.

LEAVENING AGENTS = BAKING POWDER & BAKING SODA – These leavening agents help the cake rise, making it light and airy.

FLOUR – I use an all-purpose flower; it provides a good structure for the cake while maintaining a moist and tender texture.

COCOA POWDER – This ingredient adds a deep, rich chocolate flavor that complements the sweet Oreos. You can use any kind of cocoa powder for this recipe. I like to use Dutch-process cocoa powder, but unsweetened, sweetened, or dark chocolate will work as well.

OREO PUDDING – Adds a creamy, rich layer with a distinct Oreo flavor that enhances the overall dessert experience.

CREAM – This is just to add that extra layer of deliciousness. If you want, you can add a few drops of vanilla extra.

OREO COOKIES – Crushed and sprinkled on top, they add a crunchy texture and intensify the chocolate flavor of the cake. The number 10 is a little arbitrary. You can use 8, 12, or even 14; it depends on how much extra crunch you like.

Serving Suggestions

VANILLA ICE CREAM – A scoop of vanilla ice cream complements the rich chocolate flavor of the cake, adding a cool, creamy texture that balances the sweetness.
