Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 2 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.75 cup Unsweetened cocoa powder
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 1.5 teaspoons Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 pieces Eggs (large)
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 cup Vegetable oil
• 2 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Boiling water
• 1 cup Unsalted butter (softened)
• 4 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 cup Crushed Oreo cookies (filling only)
• 3 tablespoons Whipping cream
• 8 pieces Extra Oreo cookies (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans or line them with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

Step 3

Add the eggs, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract to the dry mixture. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat on medium speed until the batter is smooth and well combined.

Step 4

Slowly add the boiling water to the batter, mixing on low speed. The batter will be thin, but this helps create a moist chocolate cake.

Step 5

Evenly divide the batter between the prepared cake pans. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 6

Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 7

To prepare the Oreo buttercream, beat the softened butter in a large bowl until creamy.

Step 8

Gradually add the powdered sugar, 1 cup at a time, while continuing to beat on low speed.

Step 9

Mix in the crushed Oreo filling and whipping cream. Beat until the buttercream is light and fluffy.

Step 10

To assemble, place one cake layer on a serving plate and spread a generous amount of Oreo buttercream on top.

Step 11

Place the second cake layer on top and frost the entire cake with the remaining buttercream.

Step 12

Garnish the cake with the extra Oreo cookies, either crushed or left whole, spreading them on the top and around the sides if desired.

Step 13

Chill the cake in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes before serving, which helps firm up the frosting.

Step 14

Slice and enjoy this decadent chocolate Oreo cake!
