Oreo Poke Cake

We had extra milk and heavy cream that we didn't want to expire.  This made good use of both, and also made a very nice moist cake.

Ingredients

15.25 ounce box chocolate cake mix plus ingredients needed to bake

3.9 oz. chocolate fudge instant pudding plus ingredients needed to make

2 cups whipping cream

1/4 cup powdered sugar

1/2 tsp vanilla

28 Oreos, divided into 20 and 8, crushed

 

Cooking Directions

Heat oven based on the cake mix box. Prepare a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray.

Mix chocolate cake according to package directions.

Stir in 20 of the crushed Oreos into the mixture.

Pour into baking pan and bake according to package directions.

While cake is baking make the pudding according to package directions.

            I made the cook and serve pudding and put into the fridge…if you do this, be sure to stir the pudding while in the fridge so the “skin” doesn’t form.

Once cake is cooked allow to cool for at least 10 minutes, then use a chop stick to poke holes all over cake

Spread the chocolate pudding over the cake in an even layer

Refrigerate the cake for at least 1 hour (longer is better)

Using a hand or stand mixer whisk the whipping cream until soft peaks form.

Slowly add the powdered sugar and vanilla and continue to whisk until stiff peaks form.

Spread out the whipping cream over the pudding layer.

Sprinkle remaining Oreos over the top of the cake. Optional, drizzle with chocolate syrup.
