Cookies And Cream Cake

This cookies and cream cake is beyond decadent. Filled with chopped Oreos, which add creaminess and crunch, and the buttercream is literally to die for! Something about all the cookies blitzed into the frosting is just transformative. The whole thing is crowned with a chocolate ganache that just takes everything to another level.

COOKIES AND CREAM!!!!!! I love cookies and I love cake but it never occurred to me to put them together until my husband Brian requested a cookies and cream cake for his birthday, so I whipped up my moistest vanilla cake, folded in chopped Oreos and a delicious cake was born.

This cake is officially one of my TOP posts and I think it’s the play of creamy and crunch in this moist fluffy cake that gives the recipe an edge. I do hope you get to try it!
