Cookies and Cream Oreo Cake
I’ve got a showstopper of a dessert for you guys today. It’s a Cookies and Cream Oreo Cake that is just begging to be devoured. There is something entirely irresistible about all that black and white goodness prepared in a pretty bundt pan.
Easy & Delicious
This cake uses every trick in the book as far as shortcuts go and I’m super okay with that because hey, life doesn’t always have to be so hard, right? (Looking for more cake recipes? I’ve gotcha. 21 Must Make Cake Recipes)
This easy Oreo Cake recipe starts with a white cake mix and gets doctored up with white chocolate instant pudding mix and a LOT of Oreo cookies. It’s a breeze to make and to make it even easier, I threw it all in a bundt pan so I wouldn’t need to frost it.
Oreos are LIFE
We are huge fans of Oreos and find ways to put them into all kinds of yummy and tempting treats:
- Oreo Pie Crust
- Oreo Cheesecake
- Holiday Dipped Peppermint Oreos
- Chocolate Chip No Bake Cheesecake
- Strawberry No Bake Cheesecake
- Triple Threat Chocolate Cheesecake
To Bundt Or Not
I LOVE bundt cakes. Kind of obsessed with them actually. I blame my sister. She has about 90 gazillion different bundt pans and got me started on my own collection. They really are so pretty and make decorations optional.
Now, obviously you can make this cake in 9 or 8-inch round cake pans or even as cupcakes. Just follow the instructions on the box mix to get the right baking time. But for me, it’s all about the bundt…
How To Decorate This Oreo Cake
There isn’t a lot that needs to be done to the cookies and cream cake when it comes out of the oven but I added two different glazes and some Oreos that I cut in half using a serrated knife. Trust me, not all were perfect, but, fortunately, I had two hungry boys standing by to take care of the mistakes.
Chocolate and White Chocolate Glazes
A simple chocolate glaze that I have used a bazillion times does the trick and if you want to, I included a white chocolate glaze to really give the cake some pop and pizazz. Both glazes take about 0.347 seconds to make so it’s entirely your call.
My kids literally went nuts when they saw the finished product. And my husband? Yeah, he could hardly wait for his slice. Nothing like a cake with cookies sitting right on top to bring out the kid in all of us.
In addition to the pudding mix and the Oreos, I replaced the water with almondmilk or regular dairy milk. Replacing water with milk results in a moister cake with even better flavor.
Tips for the Best Oreo Cake
- It can be tempting to add 842 Oreos to the cake mix. Don’t. Your cake won’t bake properly because the Oreos do absorb some of the moisture. Add as many as you want to the decorations though – don’t hold back there 🙂
- I used two glazes for this easy Oreo Cake. The first time I made it, I just made the chocolate glaze and it was brown on brown and brown. The white glaze, while super simple, really packs a colorful punch that sets off the Oreos and makes for a visually pleasing presentation. I also love the added flavor and since there is white chocolate pudding mix in the cake, it’s brings out that flavor as well. The white chocolate glaze calls for one teaspoon of coconut oil – this make it shiny and easy to drizzle over the top of the cake. You can use shortening instead if needed.
What You Need to Make this Easy Oreo Cake
- bundt pan – this Cookies and Cream Oreo Cake is baked in a bundt pan and while I have many, I love this one a lot. It releases every cake, every time.
- rolling pin – not necessary but man, does it make easy work of those Oreos!
- mixer – I used a hand mixer for the video below but a stand mixer works just as well. Use what you have!

I have made this call twice and I always keep this recipe for special occasions! And to impress people with my “baking skills” because it’s so easy and looks so impressive! It always comes out perfectly. I’m making this cake again, by request, for my daughters birthday. The best recipe!!

This Recipe is Ahhhh-Mazing! The cake is perfectly moist and not too sweet, it was everything I was hoping it would be! I did not however use glaze, I made this cake for my brothers birthday and he’s an Oreo fan (to say the least) so I decided to go with a whipped Oreo cream cheese frosting and it was delicious! Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe Trish!
