Essential Ingredients
  • 24 pieces Oreo cookies, roughly chopped Use regular or double-stuffed Oreos.
  • 1 box (3.9 oz) instant chocolate pudding mix Provides a creamy layer with incredible flavor.
  • 2 cups cold milk Ensure it's really cold for pudding to thicken.
  • 1 box (15.25 oz) chocolate cake mix Any brand works; Duncan Hines or Betty Crocker recommended.
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted Use room temperature butter for easier distribution.
  • 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip) Adds a light, creamy finish.
  • 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips (optional) For extra chocolaty goodness.

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  3. Spread the chopped Oreo cookies evenly over the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant chocolate pudding mix and cold milk until thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour the pudding evenly over the Oreos.
  5. Sprinkle the dry chocolate cake mix evenly over the pudding layer.
  6. Drizzle the melted butter over the top, ensuring as much of the surface is covered as possible.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 35 minutes, or until the top is set and slightly crisp.
  8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes.
  9. Spread the whipped topping over the cooled cake. Add mini chocolate chips and extra Oreo cookies for garnish.
  10. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Notes

Store leftovers covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. You can assemble the cake ahead of time but add the whipped topping just before serving for best results.
