Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ teaspoon baking powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 ½ cups crushed chocolate sandwich cookies (like Oreos)
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
  • Extra crushed cookies for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
  2. Mix Dry Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Whisk until well blended.
  3. Combine Wet Ingredients: In another bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
  4. Combine Mixtures: Gradually mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
  5. Fold in Cookies: Gently fold the crushed chocolate cookies into the batter.
  6. Divide Batter: Pour the batter evenly into the two prepared cake pans.
  7. Bake: Place the pans in the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool the Cakes: Once baked, remove the cakes from the oven and let them cool in their pans for about 15 minutes. Then transfer them to wire racks to cool completely.
  9. Prepare the Frosting: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and continue to beat until well incorporated.
  10. Whip Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and creamy.
  11. Assemble the Cake: Place one cake layer on a serving platter. Spread a portion of the frosting on top. Place the second layer over the frosted one and top it with the remaining frosting.
  12. Garnish: Sprinkle extra crushed cookies on top of the frosted cake for an added touch of texture.

Notes

  • Use Fresh Ingredients: For optimal taste, always consider using fresh eggs and high-quality dairy products.
  • Adjust the Texture: If you prefer a denser cake, consider adding a bit less buttermilk or include an extra egg. For a lighter texture, add a touch more buttermilk.
  • Let it Chill: Allowing your frosted Cookies and Cream Cake to chill in the refrigerator can enhance the flavors.
  • Keep It Moist: To ensure your cake stays moist, avoid overbaking.
  • Store your Cookies and Cream Cake in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
  • This Cookies and Cream Cake freezes beautifully. Wrap each slice in plastic wrap, then aluminum foil, and freeze for up to 3 months.
  • To thaw frozen cake, transfer the wrapped cake to the refrigerator the night before.
