Ingredients

Scale

Base Layer

  • 24 Oreo cookies, roughly chopped

Pudding Layer

  • 1 box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk

Cake Layer

  • 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

Topping

  • 1 cup whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional)
  • Extra Oreo cookies for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and prepare baking dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Layer Oreos: Spread the roughly chopped Oreo cookies evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish, creating a crunchy base.
  3. Prepare pudding: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until the mixture thickens, about 2 minutes. Then pour the pudding evenly over the Oreo cookie layer.
  4. Add cake mix and butter: Sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix evenly over the pudding layer. Drizzle the melted unsalted butter over the top, ensuring to cover as much surface area as possible to help create a moist, cake-like texture during baking.
  5. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes, or until the top is set and slightly crisp. After baking, remove from oven and allow to cool for 10 minutes.
  6. Add toppings and serve: Once cooled slightly, spread the whipped topping evenly over the cake. Sprinkle mini chocolate chips and extra Oreo cookies on top if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature for best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • You can customize the topping with your favorite whipped cream or frosting alternative.
  • Mini chocolate chips are optional but add extra texture and chocolate flavor.
  • The cake is best served the same day but can be refrigerated for up to 3 days; allow to come to room temperature before serving.
  • For a dairy-free version, substitute pudding and whipped topping with non-dairy alternatives.
