Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ¾ cups granulated sugar
  • ¾ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 ½ teaspoons baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1 package 14 oz Oreo cookies
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon peppermint extract optional

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  • Grease and flour two 9-inch round cake pans.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients: flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla.
  • Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until just combined.
  • Gently fold in crushed Oreo cookies into the batter.
  • Divide the batter evenly between the prepared cake pans and smooth the tops.
  • Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to wire racks to cool completely.
  • While the cake layers cool, make the frosting by beating the heavy cream until soft peaks form.
  • Gradually add the powdered sugar while continuing to beat the whipped cream.
  • Once fully whipped and fluffy, fold in crushed Oreo cookies to the frosting.
  • Assemble the cake by placing one layer on a serving plate, spreading a generous amount of frosting on top, then adding the second layer.
  • Frost the top and sides of the cake with the remaining frosting, decorating as desired.
