Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ¾ cups (220g) all-purpose flour
  • ¾ cup (65g) unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 ½ tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp salt
  • 2 cups (400g) granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
  • ½ cup (120ml) vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240ml) boiling water
  • 1 cup (230g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 4 cups (500g) powdered sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • ¼ cup (60ml) heavy cream
  • 12 Oreos, crushed into fine crumbs
  • 6–8 whole Oreos (for decoration)
  • Chocolate ganache (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease the cake pans. Line the bottoms with parchment paper for easy removal.
  2. In a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In another bowl, whisk the sugar, eggs, milk, oil, and vanilla until smooth. Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until combined.
  4. Carefully stir in the boiling water—it will thin the batter, but that’s what makes the cake super moist.
  5. Divide the batter evenly between the pans and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  7. Beat the butter until creamy, then gradually add powdered sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream. Mix in the crushed Oreos until smooth.
  8. Place one cake layer on a plate and spread a generous layer of frosting. Add the second layer and frost the top and sides. Decorate with whole Oreos and optional ganache.

Notes

[‘Using room temperature eggs and milk ensures a smooth batter and even baking.’, ‘Stir just until combined to avoid a dense cake.’, ‘For the frosting, make sure the cookie crumbs are fine enough to blend smoothly.’, ‘If the cake layers are uneven, use a serrated knife to level them before frosting.’, ‘If your frosting starts to melt while decorating, pop it in the fridge for 10 minutes to firm up.’]
