Description
Oreo Dirt Cake is a rich, layered dessert combining chocolate cake, hot fudge, chocolate pudding, Cool Whip, and crushed Oreos. It's easy to make, no-bake after the cake is done, and perfect for parties or casual gatherings.
Ingredients
- 1 box chocolate cake mix (plus ingredients listed on the box)
- 12.8 oz hot fudge
- Two 3.4 oz packages of instant chocolate pudding mix
- 3 1/2 cups milk
- 8 oz Cool Whip, thawed
- 30 Oreo cookies, crushed
Instructions
- Bake the chocolate cake according to package directions in a 9x13-inch baking dish. Let cool for 10 minutes.
- Using the handle of a spoon, poke holes all over the warm cake. Microwave the hot fudge until pourable and drizzle over the cake. Let cool completely.
- Whisk one pudding mix with 1 3/4 cups milk until smooth. Pour over cooled cake and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
- Prepare the second pudding mix with 1 3/4 cups milk and let set for 10 minutes in the fridge.
- Fold in Cool Whip and about three-quarters of the crushed Oreos into the second pudding mixture.
- Spread the pudding mixture over the cake and top with remaining crushed Oreos.
- Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Notes
- Wait to add the top layer of crushed Oreos until just before serving for maximum crunch.
- Can be made 24 hours in advance.
